Indico Capital Partners focuses on backing Southern European (Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian) entrepreneurs with the ambition to build global businesses. They believe the region possesses exceptional engineering talent capable of creating innovative and sustainable solutions but are often constrained by limited local markets, necessitating an international mindset from the outset. Indico aims to provide these entrepreneurs with the capital and knowledge necessary for global expansion. The firm leverages its experience as investors and entrepreneurs, having been involved in numerous successful tech ventures and unicorns in Portugal. Their strategy is to support companies from Pre-Seed to Series A, and selectively Series B and C, with a strong emphasis on high-tech and sustainable companies that can become global category winners. Indico seeks teams that are highly ambitious, exceptional at execution, and willing to partner with the firm. They emphasize honesty, realism, and the pursuit of significant market opportunities. Their focus extends to both high-tech and sustainable ventures, including a dedicated ocean-related fund launched in 2022, showcasing their personal and professional passion for this theme. For ocean-related investments, they target both tech and industrial SMEs with global expansion potential. Indico also invests in sustainable related SMEs with growth potential. The firm's continuous growth is fueled by its core mission: leveraging Southern European talent for global influence.
