Bruce Lee once said, "Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves." People often debate whether "this time is different," usually concluding it is not. However, I remember a past event where I thought it wouldn't be different, but it was, and it hurt me significantly. Typically, during a crisis, Brazil's Central Bank would raise interest rates to prevent capital flight. During the COVID crisis, it did the opposite by drastically lowering rates. The direction and magnitude were unexpected, and my positions suffered because I assumed it would follow past patterns. From this, I learned to avoid overconfidence in my predictions and not to assume the future will always mirror the past. Bertrand Russell's words resonate with this lesson: "I would never die for my beliefs because I might be wrong." This openness to change and adaptability, much like water, helps navigate uncertainties and reveals new paths.

Do you know what 'Stark' means in German? It means 'strong,' a fitting name as Luiza & I discovered during a fantastic meeting with Auziane Moraes and Rafaela Mar, two dynamic leaders at Brazil’s STARK BANK. Auziane, previously the head of product at Dock, and Rafaela, a former consultant at McKinsey & Company, bring deep insights to Stark Bank. As Stark continues to innovate in the B2B banking sector and steps into the PSP business, their contributions are invaluable. 🚀 Stark Bank, a Series B challenger bank, specializes in empowering high-growth startups and enterprises across Brazil. They stand out as the only company in Latin America to receive investments from Amazon's CEO, Jeff Bezos. At Sardine, we are excited to explore ways to support Stark Bank with robust fraud and compliance solutions, ensuring they continue to lead and innovate safely in the financial sector. #Banking #Innovation #Compliance #FraudPrevention #Fintech #StartupBrazil

The use of AI presents challenges in data security and privacy. However, Law 14.133/21, enacted here in Brazil during the pandemic, brought significant changes for both companies participating in bids and public agencies opening the bidding process. Both benefit from increased transparency, agility, and less bureaucracy, as well as enhanced security in fulfilling contractual obligations. By automating proposal analysis, monitoring compliance with legal norms, and optimizing decision-making, AI can offer a new layer of efficiency and precision to bidding processes. https://lnkd.in/dafUcCkM

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing industries worldwide, and Brazil is no exception. According to the comprehensive report Google and the vertical of startups by Google for Startups Brasil, supported by Associação Brasileira de Startups and Box1824 , AI is poised to create significant value and drive substantial growth in Brazil. Here are some key takeaways that I would like to share: 🚀 Startups and Innovation: Brazil boasts over 12,000 startups, 22 of which are unicorns, showcasing a robust innovation ecosystem. These startups are instrumental in integrating AI into everyday life, from virtual assistants to advanced analytics. 📈 Economic Impact: AI is expected to add $13 trillion in value globally by 2030, with a projected 5% increase in Latin America’s GDP. This highlights the immense potential for economic growth driven by AI technologies. 📚Education and Edtech: 29% of AI companies are transforming the education sector, developing personalized learning experiences, intelligent tutoring systems, and data-driven insights to improve educational outcomes. 🏫 The report highlights the urgent need to integrate AI and technology subjects into public schools and regions beyond the Rio de Janeiro-São Paulo axis. This expansion is crucial to foster a more inclusive and tech-savvy generation . 🌍 Regional Insights: Despite Brazil's vast geographical size, 92.7% of AI companies are concentrated in the South and Southeast, particularly in São Paulo. This regional concentration highlights the need for a more balanced distribution to foster nationwide growth. 🧠 Key Sectors: The report identifies several sectors where AI is making significant strides: Health and Biotechnology: 60% of AI companies focus on this sector, driving advancements in medical research and patient care.

Last week I was at SIM Conference (by Startup Portugal) representing oito 🐙and Vogal, and while there were many peak moments, like entrepreneurs lunch, hearing Tim Ferriss, watching Founder Tales LIVE for the second time, and many others.... There was one that made my day at the event. And that was seeing yet again another startup with did rebranding for. This one for Fetalix, a Health Tech startup, and as you can see by Joana's comments, we did a great job 😍 Worth mentioning other highlights & notes from the event: - Porto (and north in general) def needs more events like this. - The lunch was meant to be 4 guys, ended up being 20 in total, all getting to know each other and share experiences. - Managed to finally meet both Roberto Machado and Mario Tarouca after many years of following them on LinkedIn. - Cool to meet in person other guys working with Generative AI, Rodrigo and João from Augusta Labs & Miguel and Diogo from Sapient Studios 🤖 - Don't know why, but in events like this, always cross myself with Tocha 🔷going into the WC 😅 - Will not forget about Intuitivo, which is another startup present at the event I've worked with in the past, and always great to see the faces of João and Duarte 💚 I'm sure there were many more that I'm not remembering right now, but this type of events are really worth for the experiences and networking. See you on the next one?

(CX) Customer Experience: 🔢 Numbers + 🔍 Right Questions In a recent expert exchange with Luiz Angioletti MBA, CSPO we explored the interplay between qualitative and quantitative research. On one hand, it is important to collect accurate 🔢 numbers and trends to ensure major decisions are based on measurable trends. On the other hand, we highlighted the value of qualitative interviews only if conducted with unbiased 🔍 questions and combined with the correct quantitative data. Today, we understand that both "quant" and "qual" research are vital in understanding complex issues such as the customer experience of a cohort. Quantitative data provides statistics, while thoughtful questioning adds depth. By integrating both, we can better understand the customer experience. Do you agree?

In the 1980s, amidst a backdrop of rapid technological advancement, a dedicated cohort of innovators within the United Nations embarked on a mission that would shape the trajectory of technology for decades to come. Their work was not merely about pushing the boundaries of innovation; it was about ensuring that these advancements remained firmly under human control, guided by ethical principles and a profound respect for humanity. This pivotal era set the stage for the ongoing discourse on the imperative of maintaining human agency in the face of ever-evolving technology. At the heart of this initiative was the recognition that technology, while immensely powerful, must always serve the betterment of humanity. From advocating for the responsible use of emerging technologies to establishing frameworks for international collaboration, these pioneers laid the groundwork for a future where technology would be harnessed for the collective good. The ensuing decades have seen remarkable progress, with technological innovations permeating every aspect of our lives. However, as the pace of advancement accelerates, so too do the complexities and ethical dilemmas that accompany it. From artificial intelligence to biotechnology, each new frontier brings with it profound questions about the implications for society and the preservation of human values. It is against this backdrop that "The Transhuman Code" emerges as a seminal work, providing a clarion call for the continued vigilance in safeguarding human control over technology. Rooted in the lessons learned from the past, the book underscores the necessity of ethical guidelines and regulatory frameworks to govern technological development. It serves as a timely reminder that while technology holds the promise of incredible progress, it must always be wielded responsibly, with human interests at the forefront. Central to the ethos of "The Transhuman Code" is the notion that technology should augment, rather than supplant, human capabilities. As we stand on the cusp of unprecedented technological transformation, it is incumbent upon us to ensure that the trajectory we chart is one that prioritizes the dignity and autonomy of individuals. This requires not only robust regulations and oversight but also a fundamental shift in mindset—one that recognizes the profound responsibility that comes with wielding the power of technology. Moreover, "The Transhuman Code" underscores the importance of fostering inclusive dialogue and collaboration on a global scale. In an increasingly interconnected world, the challenges we face transcend borders, necessitating collective action and shared responsibility. By fostering a culture of cooperation and mutual respect, we can harness the full potential of technology to address pressing global challenges, from climate change to healthcare disparities. https://lnkd.in/esMcHpxV
