Show Notes

Before co-founding StoneCo, a $3.67B fintech giant, André Street was already thinking like a founder at the age of 14, skipping school not to rebel, but to build. His teacher was life itself, learning discipline from Jiu-Jitsu, gaining “environment intelligence” from being robbed on Rio’s streets, and maturity from an import-export class with 50 year olds. In this episode he joins Henrique Dubugras to unpack: - why he never wanted to be CEO - the prediction he made five years ahead that made StoneCo Brazil’s first independent credit card acquirer - why prioritizing customers early on became the foundation of StoneCo’s business model - the hiring mantra that built one of fintech’s tightest cultures 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.
