Investment thesis
El Trueno invests in what it wants to see exist, guided by a people-first philosophy inherited from the family behind Grupo Purdy. It focuses on innovation as a development accelerator, backing solutions in mobility (the shift from 'pay to own' to 'pay to use'), social innovation via results-based financing, and startups solving regional or global problems. The firm invests both in venture funds supporting transformative tech startups and directly in founder-led startups. It also commits 8% of its income to its foundation, which develops young people, and contributes capital to Caricaco Ventures to support Central American startups.
