Canary is a leading early-stage venture capital firm backing the most ambitious entrepreneurs in Latin America since 2016. We see more than 90% of venture opportunities across the region and have built an increasingly proprietary deal flow, being the first call from top entrepreneurs. To date, we have analyzed over 6,000 companies and invested in over 30% of those that went on to raise a Series A in Brazil. Our 20-person full-time team enables us to run rigorous underwriting for both initial and follow-on investments, while also acting as a true “co-founder” to our portfolio companies. We provide hands-on support in hiring, technology, business development, and fundraising—reflected in our 2024 founder NPS of 94.
