Topics
Martín Escobari: 我出生在玻利维亚一个小镇,父母是共产主义者,这与我后来的职业道路形成鲜明对比。我在美国接受教育,在巴西创办了Submarino,积累了丰富的创业经验。在General Atlantic,我专注于增长型股权投资,投资于那些已经开始发展规模并可能开始盈利的公司,帮助他们更上一层楼。 我的投资理念是适应变化,在混乱中寻找机会。我坚信,即使在最黑暗的时刻,只要坚持基本原则,专注于解决实际问题,并敢于在其他人害怕时采取行动,就能取得成功。 General Atlantic的投资策略是全球化的,我们一半的资产和人员都在海外。我们关注四大全球趋势:数字化转型、医疗创新、能源转型和新兴消费者的崛起。 在投资中,我重视商业模式的持久性和护城河,这需要规模经济、范围经济、学习效应、网络效应和敏捷性等因素。我们通过模式识别来判断哪些商业模式具有可持续性。 我对新兴市场充满信心,尤其是印度、拉丁美洲等地区。印度的数字化转型和资本市场发展为其未来增长提供了强劲动力。拉丁美洲的低估值和供应链多元化趋势也使其成为有吸引力的投资目的地。 人工智能是当前最具变革性的技术,它将影响到80%的GDP。我们专注于人工智能的应用层,投资于那些利用人工智能提高效率和提供新服务的公司。 我热衷于慈善事业,关注教育、创业和音乐,并致力于通过这些领域来促进社会进步。 Barry Ritholtz: (This section would contain Barry's questions and comments, which are not directly expressing viewpoints but rather guiding the conversation. Therefore, a core argument section in the first person perspective for Barry is not possible.)
