Investor Relations & Capital Introduction in Quito

Quito is the capital of Ecuador and the base of the country's government, financial institutions and most successful technology company. For founders, it offers a dollarised economy and an investor community that has already seen what Ecuadorian companies can achieve.

Why Quito Matters for Capital Raising

Kushki, the payments infrastructure company founded in Quito in 2017, became Ecuador's first company valued above a billion dollars, demonstrating that Ecuadorian founders can build for all of Latin America.

Ecuador adopted the US dollar in 2000, removing currency and repatriation risk for international investors, a genuine advantage in a region where currency exposure is usually priced into every deal.

The domestic investor base is small, so international and regional capital plays a central role for any company raising beyond its first round.

What Quito Investors Examine

Investors look for a credible plan to scale across Latin America rather than within Ecuador alone.

For financial technology businesses, regulatory readiness and banking partnerships are examined closely.

Engagement and Access

GCN connects founders with Quito family offices, angel investors and regional allocators, alongside Latin American and US investor communities, through conference programming and private sessions.

Sectors where we see consistent interest include financial technology and payments, agricultural exports and agtech, enterprise software, logistics and government technology.
