Adrian and Marcelo chart the territory of Remote [https://remote.sjv.io/c/2671262/1964842/16274]'s nascent days, the quest for the perfect domain, and the crafting of novel tools from the void—the kind you can't just find lying around; you have to build them. Navigating the digital age, Marcelo Lebre stands tall as the co-creator and driving force behind Remote—the trailblazing platform rewriting the rules of global employment, now basking in the glow of a $150 million valuation boost.

Since its inception in 2019, Remote has been tearing down geographic barriers, offering companies everywhere the power to hire and manage their international teams with unprecedented ease.

Notable Quotes: "You will never have the perfect thing until you craft it, because other people will not do it for you." "Our biggest competition is our own shadow and not any other brand or name." "If you have a true passion about something, it's worth much more than anyone being forced into learning or doing something." "We wanted to create an experience both for the people being paid, employees, contractors, you name it. But for the employer as well, no matter what, what kind of relationship you have." "The future of work is being defined not just by the offer, but the need of people that today have access to tremendously fast Internet, super powerful computers, and knowledge that can traverse the world in a split second."
