Founder
Victor G. Zarco, CFA
I founded Zarco Ideas to give growth companies and their investors institutional-grade capital advisory.
I build what a raise depends on: the deal structure, the data room, the company's presence with investors, and the AI operations that keep the recurring work running.
I work with venture-backed companies, and with the wealth managers, family offices and VC firms that invest in them, across the US, Latin America and emerging markets.
My career runs from HSBC Global Banking and Markets and GFG Capital to Beacon Capital, NovoDX, Snappi and PIOLET, which I co-founded.
