This part of my conversation with Joao Barbosa, co-founder at the world’s leading wellness platform Gympass (now Wellhub) valued at $2.4 is a testament to the fact that nothing big actually started big 👇 It took Gympass 5 pivots and 2 near death experiences to find the business model that works and is scalable across the globe What I found really interesting is the framework that the team had around pivots - the tripod approach towards creating value. This approach could benefit many founders especially in marketplace kinda businesses Head over to our channels on Spotify, Apple and YouTube to watch / listen to the full conversation link in comment 🔗 The J Curve #thejcurvepodcast #podcastrecommendation #gympass #pivot #entrepreneurship #founder #venturecapital

Excellent interview with Olga Maslikhova and Joao Barbosa! Truly inspirational. Great job to the entire Gympass team during this significant time of change. Keep up the good work!

João and his team are something to behold. Brazil startups are really battlefield tested. After 2 near death experiences and 5 pivots, they managed to work thru it and become a unicorn. Every entrepreneur should listen to his episode. Highly recommended!

VCs say "You can change a shitty idea, but you can't change a shitty founder" So if the founder is bold, and failed at least once - he will dig for PMF until he finds it. Then, you fast your seatbelt and fly to the moon.

Thank you for highlighting our journey! Here's to never settling for less and always pushing boundaries! 🚀
