No Border Ventures – Bridging Innovation Across Borders
VISION

No Border Ventures (NBV)

At No Border Ventures, we believe the future of innovation lies at the intersection of resilience, community, and impact. The Southwest and Latin America are home to a rising generation of founders tackling the hardest problems across industries like financial services, manufacturing, logistics, energy, and technology. These founders aren’t just building businesses—they’re creating solutions that transform their communities and redefine what it means to succeed globally.
We invest in mission-driven entrepreneurs who embody grit and ingenuity, often shaped by the unique challenges of their regions. These founders leverage their lived experiences to develop solutions that transcend borders, whether by modernizing supply chains, advancing renewable energy, or improving access to digital financial tools. We know that innovation isn’t confined to traditional hubs like Silicon Valley—it thrives in overlooked regions and diverse communities.
We’re not just investing in companies; we’re investing in the future of our communities and the prosperity of an interconnected world.
