Why did you decide to become a mentor with Endeavor Miami? "I was already a mentor with Endeavor in São Paulo-Brazil, since 2009. When I moved to Miami in 2013, it was right when Endeavor was starting here, so it was natural to continue the work with this amazing group of people." What is the best advice you would give to a company looking to scale? "Scaling is not easy at all, it takes a ton of really hard work. Your best shot is having great clarity of vision, razor sharp focus, and people in your team that have done it somewhere before." What do you think is the direction the Miami entrepreneurial ecosystem will be following in the next year? And how do you see Endeavor as a player in this trajectory? "Since I started working with Endeavor here in 2013 the ecosystem has only grown, and seems to be growing faster each year. More skilled entrepreneurs, more capital, more mentors. I love the diversity of people, companies and segments you can find here, it's quite unique and extremely promising. Endeavor has played a key role in helping this ecosystem to thrive and I see this role expanding even further."
