The best investors don’t start with spreadsheets. They start with people. 🤝
At this episode, we’re always looking for conversations that help founders cut through the noise — especially when it comes to fundraising in Latin America.
Because at some point, most builders hit the same crossroads:
You’ve got traction, a big vision, and a market that could be massive…
but you’re still asking yourself:
Is VC the right path? And what do investors really look for beyond the deck?
That’s why this episode with André Wertheimer, Partner at 040 Ventures, feels so timely.
André brings a globally-minded, LatAm-rooted perspective on early-stage investing — and a simple truth that reshapes how founders should think about the process:
venture is a people business before it’s a numbers business.
In this conversation, we explore:
What truly makes a founding team investable
Why trust and transparency are non-negotiable
How to run fundraising as a structured process
Why the best founders don’t just explain why they’re safe — they make investors feel the upside
And an honest reminder many entrepreneurs need:
not every great startup should raise VC — and that can still lead to an outstanding outcome
If you’re building in Brazil or anywhere across LatAm, and fundraising is on your horizon (or even just a possibility), this episode will give you clarity.
