Quiénes somos
Fundado en 2014, Magma Partners es un destacado VC en Latinoamérica. Hemos invertido en más de 125 startups que están solucionando problemas importantes en LatAm, generando grandes rendimientos para nuestros inversionistas. Cada año, evaluamos a más de 1000 emprendedores de toda América Latina y seleccionamos entre 20 y 25 startups para invertir.
Our team is fully remote and our portfolio has founders in 30+ cities around Latin America, the US, and Europe.
Why content is so important to us
We believe the strongest brands of the future will likely have well built-out media arms. The best brands will own their own communications channels, whether that's blogs, media sites, podcasts, social channels, and more. Both Magma and our portfolio companies need to double and triple down on content in order to continue to be successful. We are looking to expand our team and continue to invest in content.
Magma es el principal VC de Latinoamérica especializado en contenido. Algunas de nuestras fortalezas incluyen:
- Latamlist.com - La plataforma líder de noticias tecnológicas en inglés de Latinoamérica.
- Crossing Borders Podcast - Latin America’s, first English-language podcast
- Latamlist Espresso podcast semanal de noticias tecnológicas
- Educational articles for founders in both English and Spanish to help them be more successful
Lo que necesitamos
We are looking for excellent freelance writers who are proactive, curious about the tech and venture capital industry in Latin America, and great communicators. We work in a dynamic, diverse setting that offers constant opportunities to learn intimately about what is happening in Latin America tech.
You must be a native-level English speaker and be comfortable reading and writing in Spanish, Portuguese, or both. To be successful as a content specialist, you’ll need to be able to communicate directly and clearly. As you will be working remotely, it is important that you are self-driven and motivated.
