HBeyond
Creating and investing in the businesses that define their time.
HBeyond is a founder-led investment firm established by entrepreneur and investor Gonzalo Hevia Baillères. It is built to own and operate.
We partner with carefully selected founders, entrepreneurs and management teams, taking an active role in financing, building and growing businesses. We invest permanent capital across public and private markets and take positions ranging from early-stage venture capital investments to majority ownership positions. Where we see opportunity others do not, we create businesses of our own.
We are not driven by fund cycles or forced exits, so we stay with the companies we back through every stage of their growth and give them the certainty to take bold, long-term decisions.
Our capital is patient. Our people are hungry.
Everything we do is supported by the rigorous approach to research and analysis expected of a firm many times our age.
Artificial intelligence is the most consequential force of our era. The changes it will bring extend far beyond technology and will shape our lives and the way we spend our time.
HBeyond backs and builds companies laying the foundations of the AI era: from the models creating intelligence itself, to the computing, energy and infrastructure that power it, to the robotics and advanced manufacturing that carry it into the physical world.
The same transformation is redrawing how people live, work and spend their time. Yet the need for belonging, community and shared experience remains fundamentally human. Technology can support these connections, but it cannot create them on its own. This is why HBeyond also invests in and helps build the sports and entertainment institutions that bring millions of people together.
Headquartered in New York, with offices in Mexico City and Miami, HBeyond operates across the Americas. We connect the scale, capital markets and pace of innovation of the United States with networks and deep experience built across Mexico and Latin America.
Gonzalo Hevia Baillères is an entrepreneur and investor, and the founder of HBeyond.
Gonzalo built his first businesses independently of his family's group. By the age of 23 he had founded a venture builder focused on fintech and small-business lending, leading 12 companies and more than 120 people; the businesses were acquired by Santander and other leading banks in the region. He went on to found INSAITE, an artificial-intelligence company acquired by the principal investor in a major software firm, and Lok, a tech-enabled logistics company that reached a $115 million valuation before merging with Chazki to create a leading last-mile platform across Latin America.
Following the passing of his grandfather, Alberto Baillères, one of Mexico's most respected industrialists, Gonzalo separated his holdings from the family's group to build HBeyond.
From generations of institution-building in his family, Gonzalo inherits his standards of responsible ownership, discipline, integrity and permanence. His track record of innovation and ambition is his own.
Born in Mexico City and raised in Miami, Gonzalo was educated in the United States, Switzerland and Mexico, and studied economics at ITAM (Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México) before leaving university to build his first company.
