Morro Ventures is a fairly recent addition to Puerto Rico, or La Isla del Encanto to those of us on the inside. I traded the New York smog for the Caribbean breeze in early March, with the goal of launching the island’s first institutional venture capital fund under the auspices of Advent-Morro Equity.
