ALZA Capital Partners at IESE

ALZA Capital Partners is a major international investor in the search fund space. As former searchers themselves, they don't only provide capital, they also provide valuable experience to the searchers they invest in. This is a great chance to know a real investor and ask the tough questions that in other scenarios you might not feel comfortable asking.

Its managing partners, Angel Alvarez and Guillermo Zambrano are some of the pioneers of the search fund industry in Mexico and Latin America having raised their first search fund, Lottus Capital Partners, in 2013. Through this search fund, Angel and Guillermo acquired Universidad Tres Culturas, a private university in Mexico City, which they ran as Co-CEOs and successfully sold in 2017 achieving an IRR of 65%.

Angel and Guillermo combine over 20 years of valuable experience as private equity investors and CEO-level operators, and have experience in every phase of the search fund model including fundraising, deal sourcing, financial analysis, M&A, business management and high level board advisory.
