Episode Description

How do you build a company that reaches 1.5 billion people? Nicolai Tangen sits down with Fabricio Bloisi, CEO of Prosus, to trace an extraordinary journey from humble beginnings to running one of the world's most ambitious tech ecosystems. Prosus is the company behind well-known consumer brands like iFood in Brazil, Swiggy in India, Just Eat across Europe, and PayU powering payments in emerging markets. They discuss Fabricio's "jet ski" model for fast-paced innovation, the bold transformation of Just Eat into an AI-first company, and why he believes AI is still underhyped. Fabricio also shares his deeply entrepreneurial leadership philosophy: hire people better than yourself, empower them radically, and never stop questioning the status quo. With over 40,000 employees and businesses spanning food delivery, fintech, and lifestyle services across Latin America, India, and Europe, Prosus is dreaming at a scale few companies dare to imagine.
