S1:E25 Linda Rottenberg: Unveiling Mercado Libre’s Role in Cultivating the Entrepreneurship Ecosystem
Linda Rottenberg is the founder and CEO of Endeavor, the leading community of high impact entrepreneurs worldwide. In the late 1990s, Linda flies down to South America and settles in Argentina. She starts helping the social sector until she concludes that the region doesn´t need more Microcredits, but rather more Microsofts, starting-up in the region. She gets the first funding and the first entrepreneurs. Her story and that of Endeavor changes forever, when she gets to meet Marcos and Hernán, co-founders of Mercado Libre.
