We also need a sort of UN of SOCAP13 kind of thing; Australians are doing this, people from the Nordic countries are looking at bringing delegations as are Argentinians, Canadians, etc. That multinational aspect should be pulled out. maybe a congress at some lunch time or something, with little placards. istanbul, Sweden, etc.
I didn’t know Vox Capital or Daniel Izzo before I saw them here. I went to the sites and I think it’s a good idea to have a presentation there about how they are trying - an succeeding - in the mission they embraced: to support companies with the potential to have an impact for poverty reduction, providing solutions for the Brazilian population at the base of the social pyramid.
Brazil is, nowadays, a country that is investing as never before in the raise of social capital. As a brazilian and a speaker during Social Capital World Forum in Gothenburg, last december, I would like to see this session idea become real!
You hit so many important topics with this panel: building partnerships to accelerate impact, shaking up the start-up acceleration process, plus I’m super curious to learn about how the Village Capital model translates in Brazil. Thanks for proposing this!
