Latin American Startup Directory

LAVCA Startup Directory

Over the last five+ years, Latin America has produced a new generation of startups backed by the region’s tech investors. LAVCA established the Latin American Startup Directory to identify and follow this universe of startups as they grow.

Using venture backing as an initial criteria*, LAVCA identified 256 Latin American startups in the 2018 directory, up from 155 in the 2017 directory, and 100 in the inaugural list.

The 2018 Latin American Startup Directory includes early stage companies that have received US$1m+ in verified venture funding (by end of 2017) and are still in operation, as tracked by LAVCA, but not companies that have been acquired or realized an IPO.

Acquired Latin American Startups LAVCAClick here for a list of highlighted companies that have raised US$1m+ and have been acquired/listed, including 99, Globant, Despegar, Netshoes and others.

*The 2016 and 2017 directories included early stage companies that had received US$1m+ in funding via a minimum of two rounds of investment and were still in operation. The 2018 directory includes all startups that have received US$1m+ in funding with no minimum number of rounds.
