Mana Tech Founder and Chairman Moishe Mana will lead a company delegation to Brazil from August 25 to 28, alongside COO Conrado Morais and CEO Charly Esnal, as part of the company’s strategy to strengthen connections between Brazil’s innovation ecosystem and Miami, while creating new opportunities for startups expanding into the U.S.
The visit begins in São Paulo (August 25-26) where Mana Tech will sign a strategic partnership agreement with Monashees, one of Brazil’s leading venture capital firms and an early investor in companies including Nubank, MadeiraMadeira, Rappi, and Conta Azul. The delegation will also meet with APEXBrasil, visit Cubo Itaú and Gama House, and meet with select Monashees portfolio companies to discuss U.S. expansion and cross-border growth opportunities.
The mission continues in Florianópolis (August 27-28), where Mana Tech will participate in Startup Summit 2026, one of the world’s leading technology and entrepreneurship conferences, bringing together thousands of founders, investors, corporations, and innovation leaders from across the region. On August 28 at 2:55 p.m., Moishe Mana will deliver a 15-minute TED-style keynote on the event’s Main Stage, sharing the company’s vision for expanding cross-border innovation and startup growth.
The delegation will also meet with ACATE to discuss future collaboration between Santa Catarina’s technology ecosystem and Mana Tech, followed by additional networking events with Monashees and FIESC to further strengthen relationships with Brazil’s business leaders.
“This mission reflects our long-term commitment to strengthening the connection between Brazil and Miami,” said Conrado Morais, COO of Mana Tech. “By working alongside leading organizations across both ecosystems, we’re creating new opportunities for startups to access capital, partnerships, and the U.S. market.”
