What Quartzo Capital does

Quartzo Capital is a Brazil-based, CVM-registered multi-strategy investment platform headquartered in Curitiba, with additional offices in São Paulo, Florianópolis, and Vitória. Founded in 2010 (originally as TM3) and rebranded in 2024 following the 2025 merger of TM3 Capital and Invisto, the firm operates across four business lines: venture capital in Brazilian technology companies (early stage through expansion), corporate finance advisory (M&A, valuation, and capital raising), real estate development and funding solutions, and customized credit structuring. The platform is built around disciplined capital allocation, active governance, and a founder-led investment approach, supported by a team of more than 50 professionals and proprietary networking infrastructure known as the Quartzo Network.

The firm manages more than R$ 1.4 billion in assets on behalf of institutional investors, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals, with disclosed historical fund performance of 1.8x–3.3x TVPI and IRRs above 30% per annum across consolidated strategies, alongside 22+ completed exits. Its investor base includes major Brazilian institutions such as BNDES, FINEP, Bradesco, the Espírito Santo Sovereign Fund, and regional development agencies (Fomento Paraná, BANDES, BRDE). Marketing and origination are relationship-driven through the Quartzo Network community platform, direct institutional outreach, and participation in the Brazilian startup ecosystem, with a regulatory positioning anchored by CVM registration and ANBIMA compliance.

Revenue is generated through multiple streams: management fees and carried interest on VC funds, professional advisory fees for M&A and corporate finance mandates, real estate development margins on R$ 1.3B in Gross Development Value, and credit structuring margins. Specific fees and pricing are negotiated per-client and are not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market motion combines enterprise field sales for institutional capital with community-led deal-flow sourcing for venture investments, targeting B2B technology companies solving real-economy problems in Brazil.
