- 11:05A Gambiarra Move o Mundo. | Alexandre Cristino | TEDxRiodoSulUm verdadeiro multi-habilidades que um dia achou que isso era problema… mas hoje entende que é justamente essa versatilidade que faz dele um empresário diferente. Ex-coordenador do Núcleo de Inovação da ACIRS, já ajudou a organizar TEDx, Startup Weekend, mentor em vários programas e, claro, nerd de carteirinha: fã de RPG e convicto de que o Gandalf dá um banho no Dumbledore. Hoje, ele vem falar de um tema que é quase patrimônio nacional: a arte da gambiarra. Afinal, será que ela é sinal de desleixo ou de genialidade? Preparem-se para rir, pensar e talvez até perceber que aquela gambiarra na sua casa pode ter muito mais inteligência do que você imaginava. Estive um bom tempo no agronegócio, sou economista (com carteirinha e tudo), fiz um MBA em Marketing na PUCRS, trabalhei como assessor de comunicação, fundei a Remake Vendas com meus dois sócios e atualmente sou entusiasta de IA e me aventuro como dev iniciante.Ser bom em várias coisas, mas não excepcional em nenhuma me tirou o sono por um bom tempo. Hoje consigo entender o quanto essa característica é importante pra mim enquanto empresário.Falando em ser empresário... Sou curioso e inconformado pra caramba. Acreditem, isso é ótimo (na maioria das vezes).Já fui coordenador do Núcleo de Inovação da ACIRS, ajudei a organizar o TEDx Rio do Sul e estive envolvido em algumas edições do Startup Weekend Rio do Sul. Sobre SW, esse evento tem um lugar especial no meu coração. Já fui participante, organizador e mentor. Também mentorei no Reuni e atualmente sou mentor no CINF (onde já trabalhei também).Nerd de carteirinha e fã (DM e jogador) de RPG de mesa, acredito com todas as minhas forças que o Gandalf é bem melhor que o Dumbledore.
