This is the last post about the trip I did last year to the Silicon Valley with IE students. During the last day of the visit we moved to San Francisco and had some different workshops with local professors, organizations that support “wanna-be” entrepreneurs and “wanna-be” entrepreneurs themselves. Just to make it clear, I call [...]

Fool’s Gold

In my last day of vacations I took a moment to update the songs I am collecting in my Spotify account. If you have an account there too, take a look later at this never-ending but enjoyable work: http://open.spotify.com/user/newtonmcampos. During this process, I found a Brazilian artist I liked a lot during my adolescence: Raul [...]
The infinite growth problem
Posted in 1.Capitalism on July 23, 2011 | 1 Comment »
One of the things that annoy me most in our days is this compulsion for economic growth everywhere at any time and cost. I was having lunch with an IE alumnus last week and we entered in those typical talks about career development based on countries’ and market’s growth. This thing was in the table [...]
Why I joined the academy
Posted in 1.Capitalism, 2.Entrepreneurship, 5.My life, tagged academy, dissertation, entrepreneurship, MBA, Ph.D., research on May 8, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
I just gave an interview to the magazine of the business school where I did my Ph.D., FGV-SP Fundação Getulio Vargas de São Paulo. Since the interview will be published in Portuguese and only in São Paulo city, I think I could make it public in advance in English for people interested in some debate [...]
First news from Iran
Posted in 1.Capitalism, 3.Travel, 5.My life, tagged freedom, Iran, life, vacation on August 26, 2010 | 1 Comment »
After great excitement waiting for what would be found in Iranian soil, I must confess I got a little disappointed in a positive way. I am here just for three days now but life in Teheran look less chaotic and stressing than Sao Paulo (Brazil) or most of the Latin American capitals. It is true [...]
Dilma Rousseff’s “Entrepreneurial State”
Posted in 1.Capitalism, tagged China, Dilma, government, Lula, Market, PT, State on February 21, 2010 | 3 Comments »
Mrs. Dilma Rousseff is the person Brazil’s president Lula has chosen to try substitute him in next 2010 Brazilian October elections. If it was not by the corruption scheme that was unveiled by the congress and press with government leaders in 2006, José Dirceu should be probably the person in that position. Both represent Lula’s [...]

Posted in 1.Capitalism, 5.My life, tagged BRIC, BRICs, Capitalism, crisis, development, Greece, immigration, PIGS, Spain on February 12, 2010 | 3 Comments »
As you must know, the BRICs and the PIGS involves nine countries: Brazil, Russia, India, China, Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain. Coincidently, my life has been influenced a lot by some of these countries. Except by Russia and Ireland, I have been in all the others, and more than that, had been deeply exposed [...]
Monopolies: why it has to be this way?
Posted in 1.Capitalism, 5.My life, tagged Capitalism, government, monopoly, telemarketing on November 29, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Sometimes people get frustrated with other people. In my case, today, since I fortunately don’t have very important things to get worried about, like any disease or personal crisis I get directly mad or disappointed with life and other people very few times. One example of that happens when I have to interact with those [...]
Crisis: The big one
Posted in 1.Capitalism, tagged Capitalism, consumption, crisis on November 19, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I am not a pessimistic type of person. However, we had quite a big crisis in the world last October (2008) and I thought world top politicians and intellectuals would take the opportunity to start a debate to improve international governance of the world. I though they would see that our Economy based in permanent [...]
