According to the LA City Sanitation District, a staggering 4,000 tons of food waste is generated in Los Angeles County on a daily basis. This food includes “dinner” scraps as well as spoiled fruit and vegetables from grocery stores and restaurants. Recently, the program Organics LA & SB1383 now requires Los Angeles residents compost their food scraps in order to reduce our mountain of organic waste and divert it away from landfills. The aim is to reduce organic waste in landfills by 75% by 2025. Food waste makes up nearly 20% of the content in landfills. All residents and businesses are now required to do the bare minimum of separating “green” waste from other trash so that it can be recaptured and regenerated. Where does all the green waste go? Who is using it? How is it being transformed into something of regenerative value? How can we reclaim and recycle our waste in a hyperlocal way to benefit the surrounding community at large? Most of us recognize our era asks us to take personal responsibility for closing the loop on our consumption and waste, in order to become a consciously regenerative society that benefits rather than diminishes life. David Velez from TAWA Compost [http://www.tawacompost.org] is here to share how he is turning “trash” into gold, by redistributing and rescuing food, making compost and transforming the unusable into the usable at scale.

Entrevista al Congresista Juan David Velez sobre la capacidades del Gobierno Colombiano para ayudar los ciudadanos en el exterior que se encuentran sin posibilidad de retorno a su país por la pandemia COVID-19.

In 2014, nearly all US-based VCs were reticent to invest in Latin America. But that didn’t stop Washington, DC based QED from building one of Latin America’s most impressive startup portfolios. Before becoming a Partner at QED Investors, Mike’s path into the finance world was not obvious. Mike’s first foray into finance was his job at Capital One where he pursued his passion for using data to solve problems. Today, Mike lives in Tampa, Florida and is a Partner at QED Investors, a venture fund with over  100 mostly fintech investments in the US, UK, and Latin America. QED has been involved in some of Latin America’s top fintech deals including Nubank, Creditas, Credijusto, Guia Bolso, Loft, and Quinto Andar and many more. On this episode of Crossing Borders, I sit down with Mike Packer to talk about his journey from working in banking at Capital One to joining QED as Principal, and then making his way up to Partner. We also learn about how startups should approach venture capital firms for funding and what to expect in fintech in the next coming waves within the region. Lessons learned from ten years at Capital One When Mike was working at Capital One, it was one of the biggest data and information companies in the world. As an analyst, his decisions were heavily data driven: translating raw data into business models, and modeling supply and demand to figure out pricing, who to market to and at what time. Working at Capital One not only taught him about the power of data, but also about how to use it both creatively and in disciplined decision making during the 2008 recession. Check out this episode of Crossing Borders to find out what lessons Mike learned while navigating the financial crisis at one of the US’ major financial institutions. Data can’t always tell the full story. Venture Capital is an industry that requires risk taking to reach an exceptional return. When Mike transitioned from Capital One to QED, he went from a world where he had to use data to tell the story, to one where data might only tell a small part of a startup’s story. This meant taking more risks when evaluating entrepreneurs and deciding who and what to invest in. Find out how Mike decides when to take risks with QED Investors on this episode of Crossing Borders. QED: Investing in Latin America almost by accident Over the past eighteen months, Latin America has gained significant momentum as international VC firms have entered the region. Mike explains that QED’s first foray into Latin America was more good luck rather than initial than strategy. David Velez, the founder of Nubank (valued today at $4B), talked to the QED team about their experience with Capital One, leading to their first Latin American investment. As they saw more opportunities, Latin America became a central part of QED’s thesis. Check out this episode of Crossing Borders to learn how QED has invested in Latin America’s underserved populations and chose to invest in the region’s fintech ecosystem.
