🎙️ CEO’s Grind | From São Paulo to the Startup Frontlines: A Founder’s Take on Brazil’s New Wave 🇧🇷

In this special CEO’s Grind episode, Jay Silva shares a powerful recap from our live event at Empório da Si Wine & Co. in Moema, São Paulo — with appearances from:

✨ Jorge Assef

✨ Dani Costa

✨ César Carvalho, as Lula, President of Brazil

✨ Celina Bühler (CEO of Rarit Luxury)

✨ Cibeli Lima (CEO of Empório da Si)

…and many other trailblazers.

We also share exclusive insights from Wesley’s 9-day immersion in Brazil — traveling across the countryside, city, and coast to meet incredible CEOs and creators innovating inside their communities.
