Sequoia Capital is hunting for new investments in Latin America, likening the region’s startup scene to the early days of Silicon Valley.
Sequoia, one of the most prestigious venture capital firms in the world, has assigned partners Sonya Huang and Stephanie Zhan to “actively meet with founders on a daily basis,” Huang said in a video interview. The duo is preparing to announce a new investment soon, part of a model to invest anywhere from $50,000 to $500 million on a limited group of companies and work closely with them as they grow.
