With the presence of the members of the Advice team, the first talk of the Advice 4.0 cycle was held. With the participation of Marcelo Roca de Xcala, topics such as "entrepreneurship", "angel investment" and "innovation" were addressed. The engineer Roca told us about his experience as an entrepreneur and his current job, connecting businesses with angel investors from Latin America and the Caribbean.

What is Xcala? A platform to catalyze investment in early stages whose general objective is to increase access to financing for dynamic enterprises through angel investor networks in Latin America and the Caribbean. Xcala was born from an alliance between the Institute of Business Studies of Montevideo (IEEM) together with the Multilateral Investment Fund (MIF) member of the IDB Group.
