About
Tarek Waked grew up in a Lebanese family in Latin America before moving to the U.S., then became a licensed financial advisor at Morgan Stanley before returning to Latin America as a tech founder and investor—giving him an unusual combination of institutional finance training and hands-on startup building experience across multiple continents. He invests with an explicit thesis of backing anything progressing humanity towards a Type One Civilization, positioning human longevity and performance technologies as critical enablers for long-duration space habitation rather than separate healthcare bets.
