How Prosus CEO Builds Winning Tech Culture | Fabricio Bloisi
When most founders chase a single idea, Fabricio Bloisi built 120. The Brazilian entrepreneur is the CEO of Prosus, the founder of Movile, and the Chairman of iFood, and has helped shape companies that now reach billions across continents. And the spark for all of it began with a teenage ambition “to create a very big global tech company.” We also get into: • Movile’s rise from near bankrupt moments to a global tech giant • how confronting brutal facts became the cultural backbone of his companies • what the U.S. still underestimates about competition abroad • where Prosus is heading next with its large commerce model ABOUT US: We’re proudly sponsored by Brex—a brand I co-founded, now supporting over 30,000 businesses like Anthropic, DoorDash, and Scale AI, helping them make every dollar count. I’m grateful for their continued support as I bring you all conversations with some of the most exceptional founders of our generation.

From Iranian Refugee to Uber CEO | Dara Khosrowshahi
When Uber needed a reset, only a disciplined leader could see the path forward. Raised in one of Iran’s leading industrial families, Dara Khosrowshahi watched everything disappear during the revolution as his family rebuilt their lives in the U.S. In this episode, he shares how, with education as the only constant, he rose to become the youngest VP at Allen & Co., played a defining role across IAC and Expedia, and ultimately led Uber from deep losses to a profitable business. We also get into: the immigrant childhood that trained him to adapt faster why betting on people, not models, became the most important lesson of his career the early failures at Expedia that hardened his decision making and leadership style how he rebuilt culture at Uber while operating under intense public scrutiny the long term vision of turning Uber from a rides company into a real time logistics network ABOUT US: We’re proudly sponsored by Brex—a brand I co-founded, now supporting over 30,000 businesses like Anthropic, DoorDash, and Scale AI, helping them make every dollar count.
