Industry Leaders.
We believe Pygma is the best place in LatAm for founders to build companies that actually matter.
We're not a demo day factory. We're not a database of lectures. We get in the trenches with you, and we stay there.
PY9 is the last time we do this Make it count.

Add value first
6 weeks of co-building.
We work inside your business, on your pitch, your model, your market, before any check clears. One founder completed their full investment materials in weeks. Without us: months.
Program equity
Transparent, aligned, earned.
We take 1% for the acceleration work. That's it. No hidden fees, no inflated cap table, no surprises. Just skin in the game, on both sides.

By the time PY9 closes in SF, you'll have the deck, the data room, the warm intros, and the conviction to close.

We'll let them speak.
6 weeks. Four pillars.
One partnership that doesn't end at Demo Week.
PY9 isn't a curriculum, it's a co-build. You choose the track that moves your company forward. Every pillar leaves you with systems and capabilities that keep working long after the cohort ends.
What you build — four pillars
- Fintech
Payments, lending, neobanks, and financial infrastructure for the markets that matter.
- Strategy
Business model clarity, unit economics, and the positioning that holds up in a US pitch room.
- Venture Capital / Fundraising
How to raise, who to call, and how to close. The full playbook, not the theory.
- Sales / GTM
ICP, pipeline, and what US market entry actually looks like on the ground.
