    Start now. Cry Later

2020: no hard feelings

February 11, 2021

If startups and the entire entrepreneurial ecosystem were already accustomed to a generous dose of uncertainty and unease, in 2020 these factors were brought to a glaring and… evident level of pervasiveness. After last year, and projecting into the future, we only know one thing: nothing will be the same again.

Today, for this special episode that closes the first season of “Start now. Cry later,” we dispensed with crystal balls, coffee grounds, astrological charts, and countless other methods of divination. In return, we invited two journalists who have been following the ecosystem’s developments for many years and who, like us, have podcasts that discuss the past, present, and future.

Ana Pimentel, Technology Editor at Observador, and Diogo Ferreira Nunes, journalist at Dinheiro Vivo, take stock of the past year, reflect on the stories they wrote, recall the most interesting interviews they conducted, the most inspiring projects, and the most valuable lessons learned. Furthermore, they anticipate the future. Promise!
