    2025 LAVCA deal awards

    To showcase top private capital activity in Latin America, LAVCA is partnering with member investors to highlight portfolio company deal cases. These will be shared with our audience of global institutional and fund investors, as well as strategic and long-term investors active or interested in the region.

     

    Winners of the 2025 Deal Awards will be announced during a virtual ceremony on 21 May 2025 via LinkedIn Live. 

     

    LAVCA Deal Awards aim to spotlight deals with extraordinary outcomes at the firm and company-level. Award winners are featured across industry publications and distributed widely to LAVCA’s premier network of global institutional and fund investors. Winners will be invited to speak on a Deal Awards panel during LAVCA Week 2025. Select deals are also considered for publication in a series of case studies.
