André Cardoso Dias

A central-bank economist turned professor turned MBA grad turned strategic projects manager in the financial services space. A hands-on, problem solving professional and a life-long learner, I thrive in high pressure environments and never-before-done challenges! Currently helping Admiral strategically prepare for mobility disruption and diversify into new ventures. Got an idea? I’ve helped (pro-bono) 10+ startups from 6 plus countries in different spaces (financial services, crypto) build winning business plans and raise funds and am always keen on hearing and helping innovative ideas!
