About Victor Caribe

I believe that a good portion of our luck in life comes from consistently making wise decisions. Therefore I often reflect on my beliefs, pay attention to my habits and shape my environment to be prepared when unique opportunities come my way. I seek balance when investing my time to have a meaningful life aligned with my values. I focus on experiences that allow me to learn new skills, self-develop, and grow. I find diversity as a way to challenge my biases and open up to new perspectives. Leading diverse and cross functional teams helped me become a global citizen, an inclusive leader, and break imaginary borders. I have improved flexibility, resilience, and adaptability over the years while living in cities across the US, Brazil, and New Zealand.Connecting with people from various backgrounds is something I truly enjoy as I believe we need to leverage the power of our differences to build stronger, more innovative, and high-performing teams. I believe we are all talented, have unlimited potential, and bring a unique point of view to any table. I am an infinite learner and passionate about exponential technologies such as blockchain, AI, VR/AR, IoT and robotics and how they can be used to enhance our human experience, society, and regenerate the planet.For the past decade, I have been helping companies build trust, innovate, and solve important business and tech problems. At PwC US and Brazil I have gained professional experience in risk management, digital transformation, and emerging technologies. In 2016, I became interested in blockchain, which led me to a fascinating journey to better understand our current systems and decided to join the growth of this new decentralized economy. In 2021 I co-founded an organization called Play4Change DAO that generates social transformation in underserved areas of Brazil leveraging web3. It navigates the intersection of crypto education, social impact and games. I am also the COO at IMPACTO, a startup that developed a platform that allows companies to manage their social and environmental investments to impact organization with trust, transparency and efficiency. Lastly I am the Web3 Lead at QINV, a startup that democratizes access to high performing quantitative investments in cryptoassets optimized by artificial intelligence algorithms.We are building a future where opportunities in life are not limited by place of birth, family connections, or the color of our skin. In these new digital economies, what matters most are our skills, knowledge, and the value we bring to the world.
