Announcing FREE Growth Workshops in Brazil!
We are entrepreneurs and startup growth consultants who have led growth for startups responsible for over 60m users, and we’re traveling in Brazil in January and February. We’re looking to meet passionate and exciting people in the local startup community while providing growth consulting expertise where needed. We’ll be in Sao Paulo for 3 weeks, from now until the end of January, followed by Rio for most of February.
As part of our worldwide travel, we’re providing free and paid workshops for accelerators, investor portfolio startups, and coworking spaces, while we are accepting applications from potential clients for our growth consulting services. We have limited availability for these services, yet we are offering a few pro-bono spots to entrepreneurs in need, as one of our ways to give back to the global startup community.
From pre-seed to late-stage startups, accelerators to investor groups, we’re excited to learn more about the local startup ecosystem and market and share our experiences in growing companies in San Francisco, Tel Aviv, Taipei, Hong Kong, Bangkok, and dozens of other locales.
