About Monica Simo Black
Monica Simo Black is a Miami-based venture capital investor at Function Investments who moved back to her hometown after 15 years investing in New York, Boston, and San Francisco to specifically activate local family offices and wealthy individuals as backers of post-Series A software companies. She focuses on later-stage enterprise software and fintech deals where traction is clearer, giving traditionally conservative Miami capital a less risky entry point into high-growth tech while positioning the city as a credible source of institutional-quality funding rather than just a tax haven.
