close, I’ll start by thanking you
so today I’m doing a
I wanted to speak for a long time.
telex and I never imagined that in the
from the g8 of such cool people
Congratulations to the curators and
curiously they asked me to speak
about innovation communities is up to
somewhat paradoxical because most of the
of my career I did in the organization –
you can imagine that
it is the governments
I was in the moment of choice
which direction I wanted to take the
my life I came across drawing a
career that apparently pointed to a
certain stability a certain comfort
organizations that you find
traditional and I had two formations
very traditional
so I graduated in law I am
degree in public administration and
then I made savings on the same soul
I am then trained in
economics by london school of economics
and curiously I have been through time
deconstructing all this vision that I
I had realized that from the right I
I liked the idea of justice
which is right
I realized that in administration
I liked the idea of the
than the administration and the
I realized that I liked the economy more
of innovation than the economy
then it ended up creating a good
What I was doing with my life, but what
Throughout this process I have been
things that are precisely the roots of
my purpose is my purpose he
is very much in line with serving the
public for this throughout my entire
career as a public servant I went
every day during the ten years that I
serve as a public servant
very moved by the will to resolve
complex problems public problems
which are somehow not just the
government but yes
problems that affect society as a
everything and that therefore they should be
also solved by society as a
one all
The problem is that we live in a
in which government
is omnipotent omniscient and omnipresent and
for me it was a very long process
to deconstruct this view and understand
that the playing field actually changed and the
playing field has changed precisely because the
We changed the way we access
knowledge and perhaps the only way to
we can solve problems
complex public is if we
dedicate to creating the greatest public good
is the knowledge and knowledge of
a curious way too it came
changing hands over time to
We could think that before
knowledge was totally
concentrated in organizations and behind
the walls of such organizations as
the universities but there is knowledge
being produced at all times throughout
place a lot of time
if we think about the communities
traditional these guys know how to
nobody solves issues much
complex medical issues
complex social governance they
have been doing this for a long time but
with the internet
much of that has changed and communities have
that were previously only physical they
returned to another environment that is the
digital environment and then we started
have communities that are dedicated to
solve the most complex problems and
complex public problems that
people today are facing communities that
are helping to solve for example the
problem of urban mobility
curiously in Sao Paulo is this
community is one of the largest in the world.
since são paulo is the first city
the lazy user world is not
surprise to anyone or community of
developers who are those guys
which are delivering
software solutions and applications for
more than two million people
around the world
bikes in general that are of
some way creating physical things
open hardware are creating new
forms of authentication and verification
and confidence building as is the case
tim block but there are also those
which is the species that I like the most
are the entrepreneurs
this is a very particular species and
after a ten-year trajectory in the
government
today I see myself in the challenge is precisely
to work with this kind of
build a community of
entrepreneurs
It’s funny, though , that we think
just as the knowledge he
horizontalizar he also democratized
spread
then the distribution of its surrounding the
world is she total
we can find the community of
entrepreneurs in the most
unexpected as the Silicon Valley to
people can find communities
entrepreneurs in the most
inhospitable or less expected with
own band of gaza
the coolest thing of all is that
despite the distribution of this species
is unique and they coordinate themselves if
communicate and they understand each other and I
I have the privilege of leading a
google initiative that there are six
countries of the world
then the são paulo field is a space
for entrepreneurs to connect
learn and build companies
which we believe will change the
world
It’s interesting to talk about a
physical space in the midst of this
virtualization that I mentioned but is
important and it is vital that these
entrepreneurs they have a
being to talk because because the
From that place you can
to access knowledge in a way that
you never had the possibility of
do in other contexts
today and then I have the privilege of
work very close to these guys
I have no doubt that I learn
weekly much more than I
I learned in all my information
whether at university or at work
be in life
the interesting
what minds do they meet connect
and the blessing of this ecosystem
there is an almost attraction effect
natural way that makes people who
have the same will and are
divide the construction of this journey
but the cool thing is that in this
field of knowledge
diversity is an extremely
powerful and when we think of
diversity has many
Diversity connotations can be
may be racial but
mainly of ideas and this is what
makes us move forward in the
innovation and this is what makes
people have this kind of characteristic
in all these communities
we are talking about an alignment
from purpose to proposal is a word
which was spoken practically in all
presentations of this block and the legal
purpose is that this alignment does not
it is necessary for us to see the
same thing but we see the same
direction then more than we
write a map as I said today 8 to
people are looking for a place search
where we will look and we will
walk the path together looking for
understand what the creations arises
from there the second is trust
nobody does anything without trust and
curiously people live in Brazil that
in the last in the latest survey of
Latin America on trust between
the countries and people of these countries
people figure in last place
or we do not trust people
We do not even trust the
organizations, more trust is
essential fuel for the
innovations the third transparency and
I think transparency has never been so
necessary transparency between
citizens transparency transparency
between members of the same community
transparency in relations
and all this at last I wanted the room
pillar that may be the most important
that the sensation or feeling of
belonging to something greater than
possibility of being part of
something that will be definitive for that
group and for that generation
the creations that will impact the world
tomorrow
they are being made today by these
people
The curious thing is that we can
clearly identify some values and
This is the league for me, it’s what’s going on.
keep all this happening and growing
over time so it ‘s interesting
we think that a person like me is
worked more than ten years every day
it is possible to be serious
until it’s not true
you can make money without doing the
bad
if we focus on users and
problems that we are wanting
solve the rest okay
the solution appears and mainly
fast is much better than slow
because the time is urgent for us
solve those public problems
who are afflicting life today and who
will be even more important to be
solved for the future but I
I hate when I have the feeling
that I’m taking the converts and it’s
very seductive to fall into this
In this hole he is always talking to
same people because I
I particularly believe that the great
change that these communities can
to do is precisely the spreading of this
so that we do not have more
small innovation communities but
that we have a society focused on the
innovation and then yes I’m sure
that we will have the empowerment that
will join entrepreneurs government
innovators to create solutions that
will change the world in the future so this
It’s the invitation I make for you.
be agents that will spread the idea
of an innovation society
thank you guys
[Applause]
