Ryan Lopez

Ryan Lopez is an Associate at Vamos Ventures, a Los Angeles-based venture capital firm focused on early-stage technology startups led by Latinx and diverse founders. Joining the investment team in 2022, he works alongside founder Marcos Gonzalez, partner Andres Morin, and Ashley Ryder to evaluate new portfolio additions. His investment scope targets high-growth sectors, specifically evaluating emerging startup companies within health and wellness, financial technology, the future of work, and sustainability. The firm, which has received institutional backing from limited partners such as the W.K.
