FIVE ENGINES · ONE INTELLIGENCE LAYER
We don't pick a lever.
We built the machine.
ELP Ventures is the private family office of Edgar Costa, deploying proprietary capital across five engines — AI & Technology, Beverage Distribution, Healthcare, Hospitality & Real Assets, and Financial Services & Special Situations — all sitting on top of one shared intelligence layer, ELP GPT. No fund life, no outside LPs, no obligation to exit on someone else's schedule.
The five engines
Every engine sees what the others see.
Deal flow, distribution data, property fundamentals, and clinical timelines all land in the same system — which is exactly what lets ELP GPT reason across them.
AI & Technology
Early to growth-stage capital and infrastructure for applied AI, plus the internal lab behind ELP GPT.
Beverage Distribution
Consumer-first distribution across the US and Canada — over 10,000 US accounts and 1,000 Canadian accounts, and counting.
Healthcare
Capital and operating support for clinical, diagnostic, and care-delivery businesses.
Hospitality & Real Assets
Hospitality operators and the industrial, mixed-use, and hospitality real estate underneath them.
Financial Services & Special Situations
Growth capital and structured investments alongside distressed real estate and hard-asset equity, including gold mine interests.
ELP GPT
The model that reasons across every engine above. Pre-launch registration open now.
Leadership
One principal, patient capital.
