News

 

▸ WEB3 | Carlos Kokron of Qualcomm Ventures shares his view on the opportunity for Web3 in Latin America and the opportunity for corporate venture. 

“Um conceito interessante é o da Web 3, que tem o potencial de reescrever a internet como a conhecemos hoje. Na web 2 a gente vive em um mundo em que grandes empresas oferecem conteúdo e serviço de graça em troca dos seus dados, então é muito centralizado. Com essas novas tecnologias, especialmente o blockchain, nós estamos criando um mundo mais descentralizado, em que talvez as pessoas possam ser mais donas de seus dados, e passarem a ser remuneradas por eles.”

Martin Escobari of General Atlantic shares advice for international funds interested in investing in Latin America. 

“Os fundos que vêm para o Brasil quando o Cristo Redentor está na capa da The Economist vão vender errado. É impossível investir nessas regiões sem consciência de longo prazo.”

Monica Brand of Quona Capital shares her approach to investing in financial inclusion across global markets spanning from Latin America to Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia in a conversation with Patrick Alex of Endeavor

Brand on the trade off between impact and financial returns:
“Impact is top of mind for us; however, we are a financial returns-first investor. My sister is a teacher and one of our first investors was the Teacher’s Pension Fund, so if I fail at my job, which is to deliver a risk-adjusted return, she doesn’t retire. On the day-to-day, the trade-off is more nuanced: sometimes we have to increase the price of a business to ensure its survival even if in the medium term that means certain clients might be excluded because without a business there is no impact.”
