Melissa Gómez Hindle is a partner at G2 Investment Banking and at the group’s investment vehicles, G2 Momentum Capital and G2 Fintech Fund. She has been part of the firm’s team for more than nine years, leading financial advisory engagements and designing capital-raising and M&A strategies for startups and scaleups across Latin America.
From the financial advisory practice she supports companies in structuring their investment rounds, positioning themselves before venture capital funds and running strategic acquisition processes. She has taken part in multiple closed transactions in fintech, insurtech and SaaS. Her active relationship with venture capital funds gives her a view of both sides of a transaction: what the founder needs and what the investor requires.
She has been recognized in several editions by LAVCA, the Latin American private capital association, as one of the Top Women Investors in Latin American Tech, for her contribution to strengthening the region’s ecosystem.
She holds a degree in communication sciences from Tecnológico de Monterrey and a master’s in Business and Technology from Collective Academy, training that brings a strategic, technological and business perspective to her work with founders and investors.
