Esteves, Sallouti e a escola de R$ 200 milhões

In April 2019, in a Stanford auditorium, American Doug Leon, one of the biggest names in global venture capital and a partner at Sequoia, told André Esteves and Roberto Sallouti of BTG Pactual to their faces that Brazil had everything: oil, minerals, clean energy. It just didn't have engineers. Nine months later, the two took R$ 200 million out of their own pockets to build a college. In this video, we tell the story of Inteli — the Institute of Technology and Leadership — and investigate the problem it tries to solve: why Brazil trains fewer engineers today than it did in 2018, why publicly traded private higher education institutions collapsed, and why a type of entrepreneur who built the country has practically disappeared from Brazil in the 21st century. 📩 Stories like this, every week, in Bastidores do Poder magazine.
