Colectivo is a tech community rooted in New York City, inspired by the creativity and energy of Latin culture.
A global tech community with a Latin vibe. We bring together founders, investors, operators, and ecosystem builders who believe in collaboration, cross-border innovation, and community — across all the Americas.
Everyone is welcome, no matter their background. We create high-trust collisions that spark fundraising, hiring, partnerships, and friendships. Events, warm intros, and shared opportunities power the community.

Tell Simón who you need to meet. He makes the intro.
Our AI connector knows the founders, investors and operators across the Americas. He asks the other person first, and introduces you only when both of you say yes.
Support & community
Powered by people, driven by support
Colectivo also creates Latino Tech Week — a full week during NYC Tech Week — to elevate, connect, and celebrate Latin talent. Members get access to communities, events, opportunities, curated resources, and a network designed to help them grow.
One membership. One price. Great for anyone building.

Founders
Raising a round, landing a first customer or hiring. Simón finds the person and makes the intro.
Operators
Building inside a startup and ready to meet the people who move your career and company forward.
Angels and investors

The proof is in their words
Founders, investors and operators on what changed after they joined.
“Coming from a corporate background as a Latina, solo, non-technical founder, I felt incredibly lost and unsure where to start. Colectivo changed that. The ecosystem connected me with founders facing similar challenges, generous investors who helped me focus my time and energy, and a community that genuinely supported me.”
Anna SyrkisFounder, Mindu
“Colectivo plugged me directly into the NYC startup scene. Because of this community, I've been able to discover the right events, meet investors I would've never crossed paths with, and get honest feedback that's helped shape WeCheck. It's been one of the most valuable networks I've joined.”
Rafael PeñaCo-Founder, WeCheck AI
“As an immigrant founder I had limited access to network and capital in the US. Colectivo was the community that opened the doors for me and Blinka in NYC to exceptional people and investors.”
Juan Pablo LinaresCo-Founder, Blinka
“Colectivo NYC helped me navigate New York's fintech ecosystem, opening doors to the right founders, investors, and events. Thanks to them, Pagui expanded its network and even secured an angel investor.”
David AlzateCo-Founder, Pagui
“Colectivo NYC has opened doors for me as a founder, helped me build real relationships, and even given me a community to play soccer with. The value goes far beyond networking — it's a space where Latino founders can grow, support each other, and create real opportunities.”

“The Colectivo NYC team have been a major accelerant for Cluster. They have consistently provided sharp guidance, honest feedback and introductions that have moved the business forward. If you're a founder building in NYC, Colectivo is one of the highest-leverage communities you can plug into.”
Enrique GoudetCo-Founder, Cluster
“I'm grateful to be part of the Colectivo community. After moving to NY for a job at a U.S. startup, it was tough to find industry peers with a similar Latin background. I discovered Colectivo at a padel event and immediately felt welcomed. It's amazing to be part of such a strong network of tech professionals operating between the U.S. and LATAM.”
Francisco GuayasaminOperations, FCLife Investment Group
“Colectivo Network has been a pivotal part of my recent job search and move to NYC! Finding an aligned community with amazing events, people, and resources in tech has helped me take the next step in my career and know that NYC is where I need to be!”
Pao CorreaChief of Staff, Recursive Ventures
“As a founder building heva in NYC, Colectivo has been an invaluable community and Rafael has been at the center of that impact. His guidance as a former founder, and his generosity in connecting me with experienced Latino founders and operators, has accelerated both my thinking and our company's trajectory.”
Hector TerreroCo-Founder, Heva
“Colectivo is my link to the Latino founder ecosystem in NYC. Joining one of their pitch competitions opened doors to the VC world that would've been hard to access from Seattle. I stay connected through the WhatsApp groups, and whenever I'm in New York, there's always someone to grab a coffee with and keep the conversation going.”
