The firm describes itself as non-territorial and non-transactional, prioritizing the right people over the size of its stake and aiming to bring the best funds and angels onto cap tables. It offers laser-focused, hands-off support rather than operational interference, creating value by connecting people, generating early revenue, and helping recruit talent. Its community, the 'Norte Mafia,' comprises 400+ operators who have shaped the entrepreneurial landscape in Latam and globally. The firm values professionalism over formality, direct feedback, long-term relationships, and continuous work over overnight success.
