A Tech Expedition to the Startup Nation

A Tech Expedition to the Startup Nation

I wanted to thank the amazing Brazilian Google team - Eduardo Salvio, Suetonio (Tony) Pereira, Evelin, Elisa, Samuel, Henry, Anderson and Jean for organizing this unforgettable experience.

The program was one of a kind - not only did we get to learn more about this impressive small and young country which is Israel, but you managed to bring together accomplished Brazilian tech executives who got to create new bonds to continue building the future of Brazilian tech.

Despite my deep passion and ties with Israel, Google surprised me – teaching me new things about my beloved country, through a unique experience of the startup nation which differentiates itself by its people and its mind.

Thanks to you we had the chance to hear from inspiring tech leaders such as Yossi Matias who brought Google to Israel, and legends like General Doron Ganish – who saved thousands of lives thanks to his leadership developing the famous Iron Dome. 

We were all amazed when you introduced us to Wiz, a company that beat any historical metrics growing at a staggering 100x in 18 months! 

The visits to Masada, the Western Wall, the Google Campus, The Peres Center for Peace and Innovation , the old village of Yafo, and especially the Weizmann Institute of Science , left us speechless. I am inspired and amazed by the unique model presented of how science can be shared in a holistic, yet still capitalistic approach with the ultimate objective of benefitting all of humanity and bringing peace - thank you my friend Dany Schmit for explaining to us the importance of this cutting-edge international institute.

In 4 days, the Google team managed to do something unique: a perfect mix of culture, knowledge and massive networking. 

It is inspiring to see that Google understands how important it is for companies today to offer a more integrated approach at every level to conquer new partners and create new ventures. 

I came back energized, full of chutzpah and yalah! It is now time to share this experience with those around me - there are so many lessons to apply, at so many levels. 

At Kenlo , our main objective is to bring the best technology to our real estate agent communities - we still have a lot of work ahead of us, we’ve had our fair share of successes, and failures as well - we must bring more to our clients, and quicker! The industry counts on us in these challenging moments and that's exactly when they are going to find us, at their side. 

Israel tech leaders inspired me, they showed me that anything is possible quickly and with excellence - and this is not optional! 

One thing’s for sure, I will start this bridge with the Israel tech nation and bring as much tech, knowledge and chutzpah as I can from there!

Finally, a last quote which makes so much sense when you know the daily challenges encountered by Israel, which many times during our trip were compared (in a simplistic way) to the entrepreneurial journey of a start-up…. 

Miracles sometimes occur, but one has to work terribly hard for them.
