The venture capital investment accelerator, AngelHub, based in Monterrey, aims to support up to 40 startups by 2025 with a total of approximately 4 million dollars.
According to Mario García Dávila, co-founder of AngelHub, the intention is to make between 25 and 40 investments, averaging close to 100 thousand dollars each. In the previous year, the organization invested in 17 startups with an average of 62 thousand dollars per project.
Currently, they have 200 angel investors and aim to increase that number to 400 registered. By the end of 2024, the firm had made 72 investments in various sectors of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
Among their portfolio is Nowports, a Monterrey-based unicorn in the logistics sector. AngelHub's specialization is not limited to a particular industry, but they seek projects with a technological basis, a high level of innovation, and growth potential regionally or globally.
The investment focus primarily includes SaaS, FinTechs, education, HR Tech, logistics, and e-commerce, but for this year, much of the attention will be directed towards Artificial Intelligence startups.
Additionally, García Dávila emphasized that, besides supporting ventures in Mexico, they have also extended their reach to Latin America and Hispanic entrepreneurs in the United States.
In the next two years, the goal is to start generating returns for investors, as some startups have experienced accelerated growth, increasing their value by up to ten or fifteen times more. Thus, the possibility of providing liquidity to angel investors in this regard is being considered.
