Overview

500 Startups LATAM, part of the global 500 Global network, is one of the most influential startup accelerators in Latin America. Based in Mexico City, 500 Startups LATAM has a strong focus on nurturing early-stage companies across various industries, providing them with the resources, mentorship, and network needed to scale quickly in both regional and global markets.

The 500 Startups LATAM accelerator program is designed to support high-potential startups through a rigorous 16-week program. Selected startups receive an initial investment of $60,000 in exchange for equity, along with access to a vast network of mentors, advisors, and investors. The program emphasizes growth hacking, product development, and fundraising, equipping startups with the skills and strategies needed to navigate the complex landscape of the Latin American market.

What makes 500 Startups LATAM particularly compelling is its deep understanding of the local ecosystem combined with the global reach of the 500 Global network. Startups in the program benefit not only from local expertise but also from connections to international markets, which is crucial for scaling beyond Latin America.

The program culminates in a Demo Day, where startups have the opportunity to pitch to a curated group of investors, including venture capitalists, angel investors, and corporate partners. This exposure often leads to follow-on funding and strategic partnerships that help startups continue their growth trajectory.

500 Startups LATAM is ideal for founders looking to rapidly grow their startups in Latin America while also laying the groundwork for international expansion. For more information on the program and how to apply, visit the 500 Startups LATAM website and explore their blog for insights and success stories.
