The Argentinian XI
This week we lost an icon of passion, drive, leadership, and of Argentina. Following the news, we were motivated to take a closer look at the emerging tech ecosystem of Maradona's home country, the white and blue startups aiming to be the best ever.
There are now 11 Argentinian tech companies valued at over β¬150M. Including ecommerce and payments platform MercadoLibre, valued at β¬57B - that's bigger than Adyen or Spotify. Take a look at Argentina's starting lineup. Then watch Diego Maradona, the documentary by Asif Kapadia, it's very good. RIP Pibe de Oro. π
