Four Latin American startups made @CBinsights Fintech 100 for 2026, chosen from 70,000+ private fintechs worldwide. Two of them are Newtopia portfolio companies: Aviva in Consumer Lending 🇲🇽 and tapi in Cross-border Payments 🇦🇷.

Congrats to both teams! 🚀

Nobody on the Pulpos team lived in Mexico. They built the whole company remotely from Argentina, with AI as part of how they did everything.

We’re proud to have been part of this story.

Congrats to the whole team!💪🏼

Pulpos is joining Clip 🐙

It’s the second company Frank Martin and Franco Silvetti have built and sold. The first one, Restorando, took them eight years and a team of 160. This time, together with Lucas Cortés, they did it in about three and a half years with a team of 16.

@gugamayer The week also included Argentine Night at the Consulate General of Argentina in New York, organized by @Arcap_, where Mariano and our Principal Victoria Akerman joined the local ecosystem and investors from LatAm, Japan, Korea and beyond.

See you next year 🙌

We were in New York for #LAVCAWeek2026, the annual gathering of private capital investors from Latin America and around the world 🌎

On Day Two, our Co-Founder & Managing Partner @gugamayer spoke about building investor-founder partnerships 🧵

@gugamayer As more Latin American startups look to the US, that support becomes even more valuable. We bring it to every founder we back through a hands-on approach and the Newtopia Community.

@FireworksAI_HQ @vercel @a16z @andrewchen @alejandrito @rauchg An idea very close to how we think about LATAM. Four rings, now in venture. Sounds like someone in our Community, @manuginobili, you’ll always be our MVP 😉

Sacha shared the week with founders from our portfolio, and for us they’re part of the answer. Until next #SFTechWeek!

“Who will own the future?” 🌉

That was the title of one of the panels at #SFTechWeek, and it could easily have been the question behind the whole week. Our Managing Partner Sacha Spitz spent it in San Francisco, looking at that question from different angles.

@FireworksAI_HQ @vercel @a16z @andrewchen @alejandrito @rauchg 🏀 At the panel that gave the week its question, hosted by ARK Invest, Cathie Wood, four-time NBA champion Andre Iguodala and Sarah Pinto (Robinhood Ventures) explored how AI is reshaping wealth creation and why experiences like sports may become even more valuable.

[NewtopiaVC @NewtopiaVC]

@Arcap_ We see that intersection across our portfolio, where many founders are using AI to solve real problems in the industries that move Latam’s economy. With Europe making a big bet on AI, conversations like this one open new doors to clients, partners and capital beyond the region 🚀

Last Friday, the Argentine Embassy in Paris hosted a morning dedicated to Tech & AI as part of Argentina Week 🤖🇦🇷🇫🇷

Our Co-Founder & Managing Partner @gugamyer helped put the session together alongside the Embassy and the Globant team in France.

Mariano, also President of @Arcap_, moderated the panel “Strategic Sectors, Technology and Investment” with Hernán Lombardi, Matis Pellerin (Oracle) and Matías Recchia (KONA), on how technology can boost productivity in industries like energy, mining, agro and health.

[NewtopiaVC @NewtopiaVC]

How do you find founders before they're visible to the market?

Our Principal Victoria Akerman explains in @forbesargentina.

More than half of Argentine rounds are Pre-Seed, where metrics are scarce, so we focus on people 👀

Being in that room matters because it means staying close to where early-stage, long-term thinking gets put into practice at the pace this moment demands. LATAM founders belong in these conversations too, and that's why we show up 💪🏼

Sacha Spitz, our Managing Partner, was at Y Combinator's Demo Day in San Francisco🇺🇸, where 196 startups took the stage, 149 of them AI or ML ventures: a clear read on where capital is flowing.

Garry Tan framed this batch around small teams now building what used to require entire companies, pointing to hard tech's almost 40x growth (a quarter of YC's cohort) as proof that capital and conviction are concentrating fast around AI.
