What we do and don’t do

Monterro invests in and develops software companies. That’s it. We’re proud of our niche focus: what we don’t do is just as important as what we do.

01.

We invest in software.

We don’t plan to diversify.

02.

We come from operations.

We are not bankers.

03.

We invest our own money.

We don’t only rely on others’ capital.
