From Humble Beginning to Global Icon
Dr. Lucas’s journey to becoming a world-renowned tech entrepreneur is incredibly motivating. After earning a business administration degree from EAESP-FGV in 2006, he had planned to sell groceries online. He even started drawing the initial iteration of NetConv Shop.
His business curiosity manifested itself in those early days when he made a list of supermarket items and asked his neighbors what they would like delivered. The idea, which ultimately led to the creation of the NetConv Shop, was straightforward yet innovative: a localized digital link between stores and customers.
Dr. Lucas worked in banking, completed his law degree, and took on a difficult turnaround project inside his family’s firm between those early years and the official launch of NetConv. These experiences enhanced his leadership and entrepreneurial acumen, strategic vision, and understanding of how people interact, all of which were crucial in building a sustainable digital business.
Success comes to those who embrace challenges. Dr. Lucas is a wonderful illustration of this. To become the man he is today, he put forth a lot of effort and conquered many challenges.
