The Unicorns of Latin America — October 2026

Last updated on 25 October 2026·Latin America

MercadoLibre is Latin America's most valuable company

There are now over 50 tech companies in Latin America valued above $1B. The vast majority of them operate in fintech and payments.

MercadoLibre is Latin America's most valuable company, valued at $75.6B, followed by Nubank ($58.4B).

67% of LatAm's unicorns was born in Brazil, followed by Mexico (16%) and Argentina (7%).

Most unicorns in LatAm were minted during the 2020-2022 ZIRP-era, and their $1B+ 'paper' valuations are already a few years old. Liquidity remains to be seen, as very few IPOs and acquisitions have happened to date.

These are the tech unicorns of Latin America

This ranking includes the largest tech companies in Latin America, valued above $1 billion. It includes private, public and acquired companies. Most private valuations are last reported or recently rumoured.

On ZIRP-era (2020-2022) valuations: many comps on this list raised on $1B+ valuations during the ZIRP era. We exclude companies that are known to have their valuations adjusted, but include those that maintained their status, or their new valuation is unknown.

Data and methodology

Underlying data

Public markets data is powered by FactSet (consensus analyst estimates), and Morningstar (historical data). Data points are calendarized to December where relevant: retrieved data on financial year ends (e.g. FY, FY+1 etc.) are mapped to calendar years (2025A, 2026E etc.) before the appropriate month weights are then applied to prior/future fundamentals.

Private transaction data is multi-sourced, aggregated from harvesting public information, 3rd party APIs, and data engineering. All data is verified and provided with an extensive manual process. If data permits, we apply our own logic to get to the EV. For example, for a large M&A deal with available information on the target's net debt, we might adjust a valuation to fully reflect an accurate EV. In all other cases, we take the reported valuation as the numerator. Financials: we source LTM revenue and LTM EBITDA data from company filings, press releases, or other verified sources. If LTM data is unavailable, we take the 'next best-fit' period (run-rate or calendar year), provided it makes sense in a given case. For example, if a deal closed in November 2025, we might take full-year 2025 revenue as a revenue benchmark.

Any raw figures are harmonised to USD for comparison purposes.
