Human Potential + Capital = Impact

People with optimism and purpose are the world’s most important resource

Oscarito's founder Aída Mayorga

We identify and support those people – regardless of background or connections – who represent society’s greatest chance of converting opportunity into economic and social progress. We help them at the most critical time when they need it most – at the early stages of their careers when they are poised for growth.

We find and support entrepreneurs who represent society’s greatest chance to convert opportunity into economic and social impact.

Development is changing. Now more than ever, we need collaborative, innovative, long term approaches to our global challenges. Our approach to development is different from traditional project-based, centrally planned approaches. We use technology, social and professional networks, and market signaling to connect entrepreneurs with the social, human, and financial capital they need to create a more sustainable world. We believe in collaboration and transparency and that belief is reflected in everything we have done since we started.

Culture and ecosystem development are key to long term change. So we try to carve out our own circle of positive, optimistic culture — our own social capital – and then aggressively defend it against status quo forces. We hope to build long term relationships with entrepreneurs and, through their success, build a powerful, self re-enforcing community that can drive a more sustainable and equitable capitalism for the 21st century.
