Meet Evolutia Capital
A success history that started in 2017, as a result of the natural evolution and pioneering of Buffalo Investimentos, which has been operating in the Brazilian private equity industry since 2003. The diversity of clients and society’s expectations of business evolved, bringing new challenges and opportunities for us and our clients, driving us to innovate.
In less than four years, Evolutia Capital has doubled in size and crossed borders, operating nowadays in mobilizing local and foreign resources and managing long-term private investments in Brazilian companies.
We are always seeking for revenue growth, productivity, and profitability for both our invested companies and clients - what may require intellectual rather than monetary capital. For this reason, the diversity of our offerings, clients and talent has flourished as we have grown and our new brand reflects the firm we have become and that we strive to be in the future.
Meet the Partners
Each of us comes from extremely different experiences, but we all share the desire to build a country in which talented and well-thought-out people can have the opportunity to develop their own businesses and achieve success. We believe in effort, but we know that Brazil is not a country for amateurs. It takes more than effort here, it takes strength. And that is exactly what unites us, even with all our differences: to give the necessary strength for the entrepreneurs to lead them to greatness.
