Allison Kern, Morro Ventures Partner, Semilla.VC Interview
On this episode of Semilla.VC, the podcast highlighting the most exciting and revolutionary figures in Latin American Venture Capital, Tech, and Society, Trip Gorman spoke with Allison Kern, Partner at Morro Ventures. Morro is a new early-stage venture capital fund based in San Juan, Puerto Rico investing in attractive technology-enabled products and services across the Hispanic market. The Fund leverages the unique position of Puerto Rico, as a U.S. law-based and U.S. dollar-denominated entity with a bilingual populace to provide a platform for offshore Spanish-speaking companies to launch into the U.S. market and for American companies to capitalize on opportunities in Latin America. Prior to her current role, Allison was previously a Senior Associate at StarVest Partners and a Senior Associate at the Carlyle Group.
In this episode, we discussed:
✅ Puerto Rico’s Venture Capital & Technology ecosystem.
✅ What you need to know about Puerto Rico; its legal status in the United States, the tax incentives, and even what life is like there.
✅ How Morro is fundraising in the current interest rate environment.
