ACCESS TO GOOD ENTREPRENEURS
There are abundant opportunities but quality
entrepreneurs and startups are hard to identify.
INVESTMENT OBSTACLES AND RISKS

Experienced foreign entrepreneurs and expat
Brazilians want to access opportunities in Brazil but
don’t have right tools or framework.

has been isolated from Silicon Valley. This has
resulted in lower valuations and fewer exits for
startups than comps in US market.
