About

Mendoza Ventures, co-founded by Adrian and Senofer Mendoza, is a Boston and San Francisco-based venture capital firm specializing in early-stage investments in AI, cybersecurity, and fintech. The firm is known for its strong focus on diversity, with 90% of its portfolio companies led by immigrants, people of color, or women. Since its founding, Mendoza Ventures has raised three funds and supported over 15 startups, with several successful exits, including Alyce, acquired by Sendoso, and Finch, acquired by Finder. Their hands-on approach means they limit their portfolio to 12-15 companies, allowing them to dedicate significant time and resources to each startup, meeting weekly with founders to provide strategic guidance and operational support. Mendoza Ventures’ focus on diversity and inclusion, combined with their deep domain expertise in AI, fintech, and cybersecurity, positions them as leaders in driving innovation in these sectors. The firm has secured significant investments from major financial institutions, including Bank of America and Truist, underscoring their commitment to closing the wealth gap and supporting underrepresented founders.
