Golden Circle

Peru has no shortage of talented, ambitious founders. But accessing U.S. venture capital requires more than the right introduction. Founders also need the context, preparation, and confidence to make that conversation count.

That is exactly why we created this program.

Over eight weeks, 25 selected Peruvian startups will learn directly from investors, founders, and experts with experience across the U.S. venture ecosystem.

I am especially grateful to the incredible speakers who have already said yes to supporting this our founders:
Cheryl Campos, Nicole DeTommaso, Elvia Perez, Enzo Cavalie, Sarah Romanko, and Ricardo W. Beller.

They will share practical insights on fundraising strategy, startup metrics, investor communication, valuation, legal readiness, and what founders should expect when raising capital in the U.S.

The experience will culminate in an in-person Investment Forum during Peru Tech Week, bringing together selected startups and investors from the United States.

And because incredible companies are being built across Peru, selected startups outside Lima will receive mobility support for up to three founders per company.

I am incredibly grateful to the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Embassy in Peru for supporting this initiative, and proud that Golden Circle is implementing it.

Applications are officially open until August 14.
