August 22: For this episode of The JCurve I am thrilled to bring you my conversation with Guilherme Azevedo, founder and Head of Health at Brazilian healthcare company Alice that has recently raised $127M Series C from the likes of SoftBank, Kaszek and Globo Ventures. Prior to that Guilherme co-founded another health company Dr. Consulta and Brazil's largest tilapia fish farm GeneSeas.
In today's episode we will learn:
1. What are the critical elements of building a founding team?
2. What are the key challenges of disrupting a health care system in Brazil?
3. What's the hardest aspect of Guilherme's work today given the adverse market environment?
4. Is Brazilian tech ecosystem sustainable at this point?
