Afi Corporate Venturing
Since 2022, Afi has had our own Corporate Venturing vehicle, which invests in startups to help them obtain strategic, financial and technological benefits. This initiative aligns with our values of supporting the business fabric, encouraging entrepreneurship and innovation and promoting the long-term growth of business projects.
One of the fundamental pillars that guide us in this vehicle is to promote entrepreneurship, thus recognizing the value of entrepreneurship and the passion for creating innovative solutions. At Afi, we are actively involved in the startup ecosystem, providing not only capital, but also knowledge and experience to drive the development of these companies.
At Afi, we maintain a strong connection with social commitment. Thus, we understand that investment in startups not only brings economic benefits, but also contributes to the advancement and improvement of society as a whole. By supporting innovative ideas and projects that can generate a positive impact in diverse areas, Afi becomes an agent of change that drives evolution and progress.
