We’ve got something really special for you on the latest episode of The J Curve 💥 I sat down with Marcelo Maziero and Fernando Fontes, the brilliant minds behind CERC, to talk about how they’re transforming Brazil’s $5 trillion receivables market into a globally recognized model 🇧🇷🔥 An important milestone in their success was securing a $100 million funding round led by Mubadala Capital, the investment arm of Mubadala, one of the world’s largest and most respected sovereign wealth funds based in Abu Dhabi. Mubadala is known for its strategic investments in sectors that shape the future, and their backing of CERC underscores the transformative potential of the company. We discuss 👇🏻 1️⃣ CERC’s $5 trillion bet: how reinventing receivables is transforming Brazil’s financial infrastructure? 2️⃣ Regulation as strategy: how CERC turned compliance into a competitive advantage in Brazil’s fintech landscape? 3️⃣ Brazil-specific strategy: how deep understanding of industry pain points can fuel innovation? 4️⃣ Co-founder chemistry: how the right partnership drives startup success? 5️⃣ Long-horizon funding: how CERC secured $100M by aligning with investors who understand infrastructure and share a long-term vision? This episode is a must-listen for entrepreneurs and investors alike, offering deep insights into the intricacies of scaling a fintech in Latin America.

Wing Venture Capital's Founder Docs project is a unique collection of startup wisdom, by founders, for founders. The authors of the docs are talented founders themselves, sharing their experience on the topics they are most passionate about. I'd like to highlight the contributions of Edo Liberty, founder / CEO of Pinecone. Edo writes about the special opportunities for the scientist / founder (and he is one of the best of this breed!), as well as some of the risks and challenges they face. I got a lot out of reading Edo's stuff and I suspect you will too! https://lnkd.in/g_wyRMiE
