Who is Behind

John J. Meza

Solo Manager, Lyte Ecosystem

I’m a Colombian migrant based in Ecuador, data scientist, product manager, and social entrepreneur with a business background and over five years of experience supporting startups, universities, and accelerator ecosystems across Latin America.

My journey has taken me to the University of California, Berkeley, where I studied high-impact entrepreneurship and innovation. I’m also a Venture Partner at GoingVC Partners, where I’m proudly part of the Deeptech Group, sourcing and evaluating early-stage startups globally.

I founded Lyte Ecosystem to help Latin American founders turn promising university projects into fundable startups and succeed fundraising along the way. We focus exclusively on deeptech and hardware solutions addressing environmental challenges, bridging the gap between early-stage innovation and global capital.

Our mission is simple: give the next generation of Latin American founders a better chance of building impactful companies and securing investment from professional investors, venture funds, and angel investors committed to solving environmental challenges.
