María Asunción Aramburuzabala

The richest woman in Mexico, head of Tresalia Capital, which she founded after the sale of brewing giant Grupo Modelo, lately looks more to Spain than to Mexico with million-dollar investments in the luxury real estate sector. Mariasun’, as the businesswoman is known, holds interests in AB-InBev, Tory Burch and Kraft-Heinz. In August 2021 she sold her stake in technology firm Kio Networks to I Squared at an estimated US$1 billion, according to Bloomberg News. Aramburuzabala does not ignore the startup ecosystem, and through Tresalia she has funded automotive unicorn Kavak and furniture retailer GAIA.
