What? ANDRÉ LEONARDO TOUR
Round the world tour reporting the most
inspirational stories I can find to inspire entrepreneurs and other people to
do more. Simultaneously I want to promote Portugal all over the world and
dignify Magellan, one of the most visionary, fearless and entrepreneurs of all
time.
I do it because I believe that people are tired
of clichés and pretty words but then nothing happens so I want to really
travel the world and really show how entrepreneurs all over the world develop
projects, how they go from point A to point B, how the face problems and always
move on. Simultaneously, Magellan 500 years ago was one of the greatest
entrepreneurs and of all time but the truth is that, today there’s a new
generation of people, entrepreneurs and entities that are pushing Portugal
forward at this difficult moment. I will meet hundreds of entrepreneurs all
over the world and I want to promote Portugal as a brand and Portuguese brands.
This tour will take 9 months and I will visit
18 countries – some of them include Tanzania, Israel, Mozambique, India,
Thailand, Australia, Brazil, USA or England – among others.
This mission that is, in fact, much more than a
regular project or a cool adventure. This project is about a lifestyle,
solutions, heroes, contributing for a better world and understanding
of the entrepreneurial mindset all over the world. On this tour I will also act
as volunteer in India ( SAPANA NGO) and I will also write a book – a percentage
of this book will be donate to Acredita Portugal entrepreneurship and
innovation non-profit association.
Who?
My
name is André Leonardo and I am a 24 year old entrepreneur from Portugal.
I
have been developing social projects over the years. Among others, I have
organized and promoted two non-profit international
entrepreneurship events in Azores for 600 people each (both sold out for the
first - and second - time in Azores), brought together 24 recognized speakers
including Luis Filipe Vieira (S.L.Benfica president), Garrett Mcnamarra (World
Class Surfer), Michael Grove (CEO Collabworks), Luis Marques (CEO SIC) or Mário
Ferreira (CEO Douro Azul), manage more than 30 people and generate thousands of
Euros for social purposes. It was awesome!
Last year I have done a small
entrepreneurship tour. I have done more than 30.000km, went to 12 cities in two
continents and interviewed more than 70 top CEO´s, entrepreneurs and
politicians. My goal was to find out how, when and why can an entrepreneur be
successful in Azores and after a much extended research I went to best regions
in the world in the categories that Azores were good to learn and bring some of
that knowledge to Azores – I visited Silicon Valley (technology), Vaxjo
(greenest city in Europe), Asturias (one of the most advanced regions in rural
tourism), among others. It just went great!
I define myself as an
optimist, an entrepreneur, a traveler, a Portuguese and a dreamer. I love
living a bold life and talking about entrepreneurship and implementing ideas.
What you fund
and what you get
I have gathered recognized endorsers and sponsors. I
also have developed several small projects to help fund this project, I am
taking care of all of the logistic details alone to save money, I have learned
to program, basic Photoshop and web design and I actually create the project
website by myself - almost no cost. I´m doing everything I can to finance this
project.
I´m doing everything I can but I still need help. It
is hard to depend on corporate sponsors and although I already have some, I still
need your help. Money will be use to cover expenses. I would also be very happy if you can follow me on my website and social media. Maybe we can meet during me tour! I would love to have a coffee!
This is such an exciting project and I hope you can
help me :)
