MAKING THE DIFFERENCE
FOUNDERS
YOU.MIND was born from the questioning of its Partners about the traditional model that organizations were still operating. Experience and accomplishments abounded for grounded analysis after decades of successful work at consulting and technology firms such as PwC, KPMG, IBM, Mastercard and StoneCo.
The realization that the world had already changed and that this was stimulating them was also a consensus.
The idea was to do something that had a complete alignment with their beliefs and goals and that naturally brought even more fulfillment personal and professional.
At that very moment, Brazil was beginning a virtuous cycle of entrepreneurship and innovation, an environment that was already close to the partners involved.
From there the path was natural. They began the journey, planning and doing, already in the booklet of entrepreneurs. Initiated an immersion in the ecosystem, began to act as venture
builders, as investors with a real involvement in the success of the projects, identified and brought companies from other countries to operate consistently in Brazil and, on demand, began to bring together professionals, startups and traditional companies to a kind of community model, which is the essence of what they call "The Business Platform", where innovation and business are fostered, with the goal of sustaining value growth for each party.
History and Career Path
Humberto Linaris
"I believe that changes in the way people interact with new technologies will have a significant impact on business, work, financial and health relationships. The impact of these changes will create favorable environments for entrepreneurship that, aligned with the Brazilian profile, will foster various business opportunities. Additionally, we do not have in Brazil a level of education and infrastructure designed to match us with other countries, leaving us with great potential to mitigate these deficiencies and accelerate the growth of the economy, companies and improve people's quality of life. In this context, I offer my skills and experiences as a consultant and manager to provide knowledge of how entrepreneurship projects can mitigate risks and seek success."
Leonardo Lopes
"I believe in the strength and opportunities of the new economy, the future of work and our fundamental role in the evolution of society. I understand the challenge in the transformation process, but many new and better job opportunities will emerge. I see the collaboration between individuals and teams, increasingly human, based on knowledge, processes, methods and technology, combined with the simple purpose of making a difference, as the great transformation that will bring us an abundant future."
Luiz Viotti
"I am very optimistic about the future of our country. The innovation ecosystem in Brazil has evolved significantly in the last 10 years. Entrepreneurs are increasingly experienced and focused on solving major problems. Increasingly professional and capitalized investors are able to develop their investment theses and generate a deal flow that enables them to create a consistent business portfolio. Large companies have approached the ecosystem to identify business opportunities and enable them to solve many critical problems.
Our legal and regulatory framework has been adapted to stop being a hindrance to the development of new technologies and business models. This virtuous cycle is already expanding entrepreneurial possibilities and the creation of new work alternatives.
The generation of wealth and the consequent increase in social welfare will be natural consequences of this evolution."
