## Definición de Venture Capital

Se denomina **Venture Capital (VC)** o **Capital de Riesgo** a las inversiones de capital para adquirir una participación en el accionariado de compañías pequeñas o de mediano tamaño, normalmente [startups](https://startupeable.com/wiki/startup/startup-2/). Estas inversiones son ejecutadas por las firmas de **VC**.

**Descubre más sobre lo que ocurre detrás de un fondo de Venture Capital, en nuestro canal de YouTube:**

### ¿Qué es una firma de Venture Capital?

La industria está compuesta por firmas de VC, instituciones responsables de 3 tareas principales:

1. Buscar, evaluar y tomar la decisión de invertir en una startup
2. Ejecutar las operaciones legales y financieras para invertir los fondos
3. Administrar su portafolio de inversiones en startups

Las firmas de VC hacen estas tareas en representación de sus inversionistas, los _Limited Partners (LPs)_, quienes aportan capital a un fondo de VC administrado por dicha firma. Sí, las firmas de Venture Capital también tienen sus propios inversionistas.

## Ejemplos de Firmas de Venture Capital

En México, [Dalus Capital](https://daluscapital.com/es/), [Angel Ventures](http://angelventures.vc/) y [Wollef](https://wollefvc.com/) son algunas de las firmas pioneras.

En el Perú, [Angel Ventures Perú](https://www.linkedin.com/company/angel-ventures-peru/?originalSubdomain=mx) es la primera firma de **VC** y, además, cuenta con la red de [inversión ángel](https://startupeable.com/wiki/venture-capital/inversionista-angel/) más grande del país.

En Colombia, se encuentran [Velum Inverlink](https://www.velumventures.com/) , [Odiseo](https://capria.vc/network/odiseo/) y [Polymath Ventures](https://polymathv.com/).

En Chile, [Magma Partners](https://www.magmapartners.com/) es probablemente la firma de venture capital más reconocida.

[Kaszek Ventures](https://www.kaszek.com/) de Argentina es la firma de venture capital con más trayectoria en el país y en todo Latinoamérica.
