Current Firm
Alante Capital
Focus
Climate, AI
Karla Mora runs Alante Capital's unusually narrow single-industry VC strategy focused exclusively on technology and infrastructure around the apparel value chain, building structured partnerships with global brands like Levi's, Nike, and adidas who share pricing and operational data under NDAs to help vet startups and secure board seats despite small checks. Her approach stems from economic development work in fragile markets including six months in Kabul, leading her to frame venture investing as working from the inside of an industry to solve what she calls waste across overproduction, unsold inventory, materials, and carbon through early bets on invisible infrastructure like biodegradable polyester made from captured methane and fiber-recycling tech that separates cotton-poly blends.
