The Express steamed down to Rio de Janeiro for a quick trip to discover a city trying to transform itself into Latin America's tech capital, and change the course of Brazil's economic future. From the first Web Summit held in Latin America, we spoke with Gabriela Goncalves of Nilla Capital, and Marcos Casarin of Oxford Economics about Brazil's economy today, where it's headed, and the opportunities for investors and innovation.
