Mendoza Ventures is a Boston-based venture fund focused on early-stage and growth investments in fintech, AI, and cybersecurity. Founded by Adrian and Senofer Mendoza, the firm emphasizes a hands-on, operator-led approach, drawing on the founders’ experience to support portfolio companies with strategic guidance, customer introductions, and partnership development beyond simple capital. The fund seeks to back founders with deep domain expertise in its three core areas and aims to diversify its portfolio by prioritizing startups led by immigrants, people of color, and women. Since its inception as a pilot fund in 2016 and formal launch of Mendoza Ventures Fund II in 2019, the firm has established a presence in Boston and expanded its reach to include operations on the West Coast, with a recent emphasis on building an ecosystem that can support early-stage companies through active involvement and network-building.
