From the very beginning, we’ve believed that a strong investment team goes beyond capital and decision-making. It’s about building an ecosystem of people who can think, help to build, challenge assumptions, and help navigate moments of deep technological change.
Today, we’re at one of those moments.
Entire industries are being reshaped by AI at a pace we haven’t seen before. Products, teams, and even the way companies are built are evolving in real time. In this context, staying close to operators who are actively experimenting, learning, and building becomes more important than ever.
That’s why we’re delighted to announce our collaboration with Felipe Talavera.
After completing an important cycle as founding engineer and technology executive for twelve years at Flywire (NASDAQ: FLYW), Felipe took a deliberate pause to think about what came next. Rather than jumping into the obvious path, he chose to lean into exploration. His focus over the past two years has been clear: go deep into AI, understand how products are being reimagined, and be early in a shift that will define the next generation of technology companies.
As part of this collaboration, Felipe will support our due diligence processes, help refine our investment perspectives across different areas, and work closely with founders in our portfolio. His approach will be highly hands-on — combining product experimentation, strategic advisory work, and constant exposure to how teams across different parts of the world are building and deploying AI.
“I’m really excited for the opportunity to support the legendary Kfund team and founders during this chaotic, crazy and fun industry time. The physics laws of software are being rewritten in front of our eyes, it’s time to explore and relearn them!”, Felipe said.
Felipe brings a rare mix of curiosity and execution. He wants to experiment, stay on the crest of the wave and, most importantly, help others climb onto it. That mindset resonates deeply with how we think about our role as investors and partners to founders.
We’re excited and grateful to be working together with Felipe at such a defining moment for the industry, and we’re looking forward to what we’ll build and learn along the way.
