About iAlumbra Capital

Innovaciones Alumbra (“iAlumbra”) is a family office platform dedicated to advancing environmental and social regeneration, expanding inclusive economic opportunity, and strengthening long-term resilience across the Americas. iAlumbra deploys capital across the full spectrum, from philanthropy to catalytic and market rate investing, through three interconnected pillars: iAlumbra Capital (investments), iAlumbra Philanthropy (foundation), and iAlumbra Business Collective (operating enterprises).

iAlumbra Capital manages a taxable investment portfolio that advances mission-aligned outcomes across key sectors: clean energy, food systems, water, and selectively in high conviction opportunistic strategies to build resilience throughout the Americas. The portfolio is globally diversified, while the investment team prioritizes private, impact aligned opportunities across the Americas, with a concentrated focus on Latin America, particularly Mexico, Panama, and Costa Rica. The strategy integrates:

• Impact-Aligned Private Investments through funds and direct opportunities that target long-term, competitive financial returns with clear environmental and social benefit.
• Catalytic Investments designed to unlock innovation, address structural market gaps, and mobilize additional public and private capital toward systemic impact.

Across both approaches, iAlumbra Capital applies disciplined underwriting, flexible structuring, and deep regional insight to advance scalable solutions that generate competitive risk adjusted returns, strengthen communities, restore natural systems, and support resilient local economies.

iAlumbra Philanthropy advances regenerative models of economic growth that restore the environment, honor community priorities, and strengthen long-term resilience across the Americas. Rooted in Baja California Sur, Mexico, and focused on the intersections of ocean, land, and place, iAlumbra Philanthropy co-creates solutions that integrate science, local knowledge, and strategic capital deployment. Through partnerships, grantmaking, and field-based collaboration, it scales practices that safeguard ecosystems, reinforce civic life, and improve quality of life- complementing and amplifying the investment and enterprise efforts across the broader iAlumbra platform.

iAlumbra Business Collective builds and operates place-based ventures that model durable, regenerative systems. This includes land and water stewardship initiatives in Baja California Sur and a regenerative offshore aquaculture platform, Cuna del Mar. These efforts demonstrate commercially viable systems that restore ecosystems, strengthen communities, and generate measurable environmental, social, and financial value.
