In this week’s episode we talk to Julio Vasconcelos, managing partner at Atlantico, a Brazilian early stage VC firm “backing bold founders seeking to define a better future in Latin America and beyond”.

Prior to becoming a VC, Julio had an extensive career as both a founder and operator. He was the first employee of Facebook in Brazil and soon after that he co-founded Peixe Urbano, a daily deals startup that became one of Brazil’s fastest growth stories to date, both on the way up and way down.

Following his entrepreneur in residence stint at legendary VC firm Benchmark, Julio co-founded Prefer and three years later became a full time VC.

Since 2019 he’s the managing partner and founder of Atlantico, a leading VC firm in the region that also publishes the popular “Latin America Digital Report 2023”.

In this episode, we talk to Julio about his journey and experience building, scaling and investing in tech companies.
