Description
I couldn't find a simple way to explore the Brazilian startup ecosystem geographically, as I can in other places like the Bay Area or London, so I built one.The map currently includes hundreds of startups from Sao Paulo and their job opportunities.The most interesting thing I've learned so far is how clustered startup activity is in a handful of areas.I'd love to hear your thoughts.The EN version: https://www.startupsbr.com/sao-paulo
