Jimena Pardo is the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Hi Ventures, a leading Latin American venture fund she established in 2012 after previously serving as Product Growth Manager at Meta/Facebook and CEO of her own venture-backed carsharing company, Carrot. Her investment thesis targets early-stage companies in Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A across Latin America, with a sharp focus on fintech, e-commerce (Future of Commerce), smart cities, human capital, supply chain tech, and AI. Hi Ventures manages over $300 million across four funds and typically leads investment rounds rather than following. Notable portfolio companies include Fintual, Nuvocargo, Flink, SenzAI, and the high-return exit of Cornershop. Pardo holds board seats at Dentalia, Mendel, and Slang, and serves as a Board Member of AMEXCAP, the Mexican Private Equity and Venture Capital Association. Her distinctive point of view emphasizes that operational experience and empathy are critical advantages for backing founders solving Latin America’s hardest problems, a philosophy she has shared in public discussions on building global companies from the region.
