FII PRIORITY Rio de Janeiro 2024

We are thrilled and honored to have partnered with FII Institute for its first event in Brazil: FII PRIORITY Rio de Janeiro 2024 – Invest in Dignity, which took place from June 11-13th 2024.

Our team had the privilege of contributing to three significant panels:

  • Founding Partner, Ambassador Clifford Sobel shared his insights on reshaping the global economy during a dynamic panel discussion.
  • Founding Partner, Scott Sobel participated in a panel titled “Which Emerging Technologies Will Enhance the Delivery of Traditional Financial Services?” alongside other leading investment firms such as GDA Luma Capital, White Oak Global Advisors, K2 Integrity & Kroll Family Office, and Endeavor Catalyst.
  • Dan Schulman, Valor’s newest Managing Partner and former CEO of PayPal, moderated a compelling panel on Brazil’s domination in fintech, joined by David Vélez, Founder, Chairman & CEO of Nubank.

The FII PRIORITY Rio de Janeiro summit, under the theme “Invest in Dignity,” explored how investing in the ecological transition, technology and innovation, and social inclusion can build a new global order that prioritizes dignity for all. Ensuring that global citizens’ dignity is nurtured and protected is a pivotal global objective, inextricably intertwined with sustainable development and economic prosperity.
