“Since very early in my life I have been into business, most of the time creating financial and business models, applying to my entrepreneurship and to others, and with the return of the works, investing in different companies of my own, and some other third party private projects. My most renowned and recognize works in some different areas that I have been working on, are the licensing and merchandising of the movies trilogies, The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, as a official consultant for Warner Bros. I have done the revisions of the translation to Portuguese and the proper use of Elvish Language, and I have created and designed all licensed products in Brazil, from papers and jewelry to board games, RPG Book, Game Cards and so many other licensed products.”
“The second work is the creation and hard work all over the world to legitimize and recognize the digital sports, through public politics created specifically for this ecosystem, as well as legislation and regulations towards the same public policies in different countries, states, and cities. Add to that the international digital sports programs and its projects such as Changing the People, Changing the World, and Esports Cities and Venues, now spread in 3 different continents and 5 different countries, always aiming for social inclusion, innovation, business, and education through digital sports as a tool to create better citizens. I have been in Esports for the last 17 years.”
Personal Motto
“What I did was not so much to see what nobody had seen, as to think what nobody had yet thought concerning that which everybody was seeing.”
Biggest challenge that you’ve overcome in your professional career
“To understand that, the greatest competitor of my entrepreneurs is myself. I am the one judging, blaming, demanding, and expecting from me my best and even more. So I needed to control myself and cool down. The rest is a consequence of hard work, persistence, determination and preparation, because the important thing is not to become a wealthy person, the important thing is the person you must become, to become a wealthy person, and to understand that to dream the achievable, is effectiveness, make it a reality, it’s efficiency.”
