How to establish a transnational startup in Mexico?
Due to the large size of its internal market, Mexico is the most attractive market for a startup in Latin America.
According to the Industry Data & Analysis Update on Latin American Private Equity & Venture Capital 2020 report from the Latin American Venture Capital Association (LAVCA), 2019 was the best year for Latin American entrepreneurship since 2011, as the Private Equity (PE ) and Venture Capital (VC) were for $ 6.5 billion, while strategic sales generated $ 2.6 billion through 39 acquisitions from both regional and international buyers.
For Mexico, the scenario was also encouraging, with investment capture in PE and VC for a total of 1.1 billion dollars committed in 115 agreements. In addition, the country is distinguished by having an ecosystem with a better territorial distribution of startups, with 32% in Mexico City and the Metropolitan Area, 10% in Guadalajara, and 8% in Monterrey, according to the study Startup Latin America: Building a future Innovator, from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)
