ESPM Summit - Entrepreneurial Longevity: Who Said the Future Belongs Only to the Young?
The increase in longevity is reshaping the labor market, consumption, and the way new businesses are born — and Brazil is experiencing a silent boom of mature entrepreneurs. They don't come empty-handed: they bring expertise, contact networks, and decades of experience that the innovation ecosystem cannot ignore.
