“If you can make it in #Brazil, you can make it anywhere.”

Netflix’s […] top 10 programs each week don’t have as much overlap with the global rankings as Brazil. That suggests that either taste in **Brazil mirrors the global population**” https://t.co/FM6QsQTctI

“Mas passa, tudo passa, uva passa”. Como não amar os @bolofofos?!

AUTHENTIC #enthusiasm for the things that I like and do is my #SuperPower!

Human challenges are bigger than technological challenges https://t.co/El8iRHW9OM

WHERE you STUDIED doesn't matter... until it does. Or the other way around. I'm still not sure if this is good or bad. But #brand matters.

“Robustify your network!” @balajis If some untrue about you were to be told in the media by a malicious actor, would your friends believe in to? https://t.co/Uw06JQGDjQ

BOARDS are hind-sighted by their by their hind-sightness.

"Board members knows #finance! Maybe a little #marketing. They struggle with #statistics and #DataScience. Imagine with #EarthSciences and #biochemistry?!" an insider told me.

They should:

They could OUTSOURCE the #innovation; CREATE or join a Corporate Venture Capital CVC to start investing in these technologies, and let them do the scouting and M&A strategy. Whatever you do, please, just DON'T create another #accelerator!

(Almost) All companies are dependent on (to a high extent) freely available natural resources (sun light and energy, water, air, pollination) and may fear that this resource won't be as (freely) available in the future. And may want to reduce this risk https://t.co/bQmqj99aCk

#innovation OUTSIDE your #CoreBusiness. It IS-YOUR-PROBLEM and you need an #Strategy to deal with it! 🧵

Then a DEFINITION can be: a #product, #process or #service that we have to CREATE in order to SOLVE (or better solve) a problem that cannot be (properly) solved today with the available #tools & #technologies

Sometimes we struggle finding the better #definition of #innovation. But that is not important. Innovation should not be an end on itself. And when you realize that, is the moment you find a USEFUL definition. A🧵

What matter is what you or your client wants to ACHIEVE: + #efficiency? + #resiliency? Strength the BRAND? - #cost? If you can achieve that WITHOUT innovation, that is ok. The problem is when there is no cost-effective #technology AVAILABLE to reach your goal.

To some extend, this #personality profiles do work. I'm an #entrepreneur and an #explorer https://t.co/XTWXgWHna9

It's easy to FALL in the TRAP of building for #investors (as if they knew better than #clients what the PROBLEM is). It was Mandić who thought me (in the 1 conversation we had): "bring the clients and the investor will come" https://t.co/UMwp4C8ogi

The INCENTIVE is on #imitation not #innovation

Many innovative Co. have PREDATORY #BusinessModels (Monsanto had, Facebook has) but only a few face #reputation LOSS (former did, latter didn’t). Is it RANDOM (unlike) or society’s (NGO) mobilization? So the remaining question is: what r the interests of who funds these NGO? 🤔
