Michael Nicklas is a managing partner at Valor Capital Group who lives and works between Rio de Janeiro and New York, focusing on backing Brazilian and Latin American companies that can become global references in sectors like fintech and crypto rather than importing Silicon Valley models. He has strong conviction that Brazil will be the first fully tokenized economy and maintains close alignment with Brazil's central bank on regulatory innovation like Pix and Drex, while integrating geopolitical risk and macro dynamics into his cross-border venture decisions.
