Operations Partner, ANIMO Ventures
Nico Berardi built his career first in social impact rather than finance, spending seven years in senior leadership at TECHO.org helping it become Latin America's largest nonprofit before entering venture capital. At ANIMO Ventures, he writes unusually large checks very early in rounds and speaks with all his founders every 48 hours, reflecting an intensive hands-on relationship model that differs from typical seed investors.
