Couto Group, a boutique capital advisory firm headquartered in the United States with offices in Boston, New York, and São Paulo, announced the expansion of its global network through the creation of strategic hubs in some of the world’s most influential innovation ecosystems, including Silicon Valley, Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Switzerland.
The expansion is designed to strengthen the firm’s ability to support founders and growth companies pursuing international opportunities while fostering deeper connections within the global investment community. By establishing a presence in leading financial and technology centers, Couto Group aims to facilitate collaboration between entrepreneurs, investors, and strategic partners operating across multiple markets.
Founded by entrepreneur Kelly Couto, the firm operates as a strategic capital advisory platform focused on helping promising companies structure their growth strategies and prepare for international expansion. Couto Group works alongside founders to refine market positioning, enhance investor communications, and open access to a curated network of global investors and partners.
“Innovation today is borderless,” said Kelly Couto, founder of Couto Group. “Our role is to help founders connect with the global ecosystem of investors, partners, and industry leaders who play a critical role in scaling ambitious companies.”
The expansion forms part of Couto Group’s long-term strategy to build a globally connected advisory platform capable of supporting both founders and investors operating in different regions. Through its international network, the firm collaborates with partners across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, encouraging cross-border dialogue and strategic partnerships.
The rapid development of international venture capital and the emergence of new global innovation hubs have significantly reshaped how startups access capital, talent, and resources. Couto Group seeks to contribute to a more connected entrepreneurial landscape where founders and investors can collaborate across borders and unlock new opportunities.
The establishment of strategic hubs in Silicon Valley, Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Switzerland represents a key milestone in strengthening the firm’s international presence and supporting companies building globally scalable businesses.
