Seedmost frequent entry

big_bets lists 16 checked portfolio companies on its own site and is named in 7 funding rounds. Its most frequent entry is Seed, 43% of the companies with a known first round. Its largest themes are Fintech (29%), E-commerce & Marketplaces (14%) and Enterprise Software (14%). 54% of its companies are based in Brazil. It invests most often alongside Valor Capital Group, Kaszek and Play Ventures.

Counts come from funding rounds that name big_bets, complete from mid-2025: earlier rounds appear only when they were reported later. Round amounts and full round histories are on Fundup AI.

Round figures show recent activity, not big_bets' whole history. Rounds on record name 7 companies; its own site lists 16. Funding rounds are complete from mid-2025, so counts and the yearly trend undercount a firm that invested before then. The portfolio, themes and places come from its own site and are not affected.

Rates come from what VCinfo has observed since observation_start. Firms tend to remove companies that closed, so early rates understate reality. A company leaving a portfolio page does not mean it closed or exited. An unreachable site means our checks failed, nothing more.
