Background

Mayra Urbano was publicly listed in 2017 by the Latino Business Action Network as Founding Partner at Moneta Partners. That mentor profile says she helped entrepreneurs working on pressing social or environmental issues in eco-business and green-society niches, combining capital investment with business strategy. It also says Moneta Partners provided strategic advice, interim management, board development, growth equity, investor introductions, and pre-analyzed investment opportunities.

Her background combines corporate finance, operations, startup advising, and angel investing. A public Clarity profile says she has had more than 25 years of business and startup experience, advising clients on planning, strategy, pitch preparation, projections, valuation, and financial and operational oversight. The same profile frames her as someone who has been on both sides of the table: entrepreneur, investor, and judging-panel participant.

A public Mesh profile, which says it is drawn from public sources and should be verified, describes Urbano as Founder and CEO of Brigit Ventures and cites prior roles including Corporate Controller for Philips Consumer Electronics in Venezuela and Controller & General Manager at The Ronco Group. It also lists education at the University of North Florida and Universidad Central de Venezuela, plus mentoring affiliations with the Stanford Latino Entrepreneurs Program, the University of Florida Innovation Hub, and MassChallenge Mexico.

Florida Division of Corporations records show Moneta Partners, LLC was filed in Florida on July 22, 2014, with Mayra Urbano listed as registered agent and manager. The entity is listed as inactive after voluntary dissolution filed November 15, 2018, so current operating status of Moneta Partners should be treated as unverified.
