We strive to multiply our impact. PAYING IT FORWARD Entrepreneurs magnify change and innovation by committing themselves to investing in the next generation of founders and leaders. at's why Endeavor not only supports the entrepreneurs in our network as they scale but also provides them with a platform to pay it forward, strengthening our network and their local ecosystems. It's a cycle that Creditas Founder Sergio Furio (right) understands intimately: Investment from firms such as Kaszek Ventures and Redpoint eVentures, both led by alumni Endeavor Entrepreneurs, helped Sergio scale Creditas into one of Brazil's largest fintech companies today. Since becoming an Endeavor Entrepreneur in 2017, Sergio has dedicated himself to reinvesting his success, donating more time as a mentor than almost any other entrepreneur in the network, joining the board of Endeavor Brazil, and serving as a panelist at International Selection Panels. And, after Creditas received investment from Endeavor Catalyst, Sergio invested his own money as an Endeavor Catalyst LP to support the growth of other companies led by Endeavor Entrepreneurs. 160 EN DE AVO R ENTREPREN EU R S REG U L ARLY M ENTO R OTH ER ENTREPREN EU R S I N TH E N ET WO RK SERGIO FURIO FOUNDER & CEO, CREDITAS ENDEAVOR ENTREPRENEUR (BRAZIL) "I received a lot of help and support over the last seven years building Creditas.

As an ISP panelist, Endeavor mentor, Endeavor Catalyst investor, and frequent inspirational speaker, Sergio Furio has impacted countless current and future founders.
