¿What does Lucha look for in a startup?

¿Does Lucha invest directly in the companies?
For now, Lucha does not have a fund that invests directly in the companies, but we do help our companies secure the funding they need. Additionally, when a company joins our portfolio, there is an opportunity for a direct investment from Lucha’s founders of pre-seed capital. Lucha’s main investment in its companies is the work we put in on a daily basis.
