For over 17 years, I have been building startups, leading open innovation projects and developing the brazilian innovation ecosystem. I have a passion for creating positive impact through technology and entrepreneurship. 

As venture capital advisor at FIEMG, I am on a mission to create the largest industry innovation hub in LATAM. 

As the Founder of Me Escuta, I want to give hearing back to millions of people who suffer from hearing loss.

I also founded Genesis Startups, a corporate venture studio that helps companies launch and scale their startups. 

I also host a podcast named named A Ponte to help corporates and startups connect and generate results.

I have solid skills in open innovation, venture building and corporate venture capital.
