Flexport was a breakout success—reimagining global trade with tech at its core. But when the freight market cooled and efficiency overtook service, things started to unravel. Founder Ryan Petersen stepped aside, handing the CEO role to former Amazon exec Dave Clark. Months later, he was back at the helm.In this episode, Ryan explains what went wrong, how he's rebuilding Flexport—cutting $300M in costs, restoring customer focus—and why promoting from within beats chasing outside stars. He also weighs in on Trump's proposed tariffs and what they could mean for the future of global trade.Chapters: 00:00 Trailer00:31 Introduction02:07 Meeting smart people, seeing the world03:40 Eroded margins09:52 Charismatic and overconfident15:32 Not an overnight decision20:08 The founder has returned23:10 Redoing the hiring26:38 No substitute for passion31:00 Working for and with my brother37:28 Working with forwarders42:14 Being a founder can be lonely47:49 Life's work54:06 The right person for the job1:00:55 19 countries1:04:57 Blowing people up1:07:24 Work and being a good dad1:08:34 Not doing it for money and loving money1:17:52 Import and export tariffs1:22:57 De minimis1:25:54 Panama and the Suez Canal1:36:50 Going public1:42:24 Who Flexport is Hiring 1:42:42 What "grit" means to Ryan1:43:06 OutroMentioned in this episode: Founders Fund, Amazon, Toyota Motor Corporation, Slack, Brex, Pedro Franceschi, Henrique Dubugras, United States Customs and Border Protection, ImportGenius, Michael Kanko, Y Combinator, Paul Graham, Intel Corporation, Shopify, Geely Holding (Zhejiang Geely Holding Group Co., Ltd.), The Volvo Group, Intuit TurboTax, David Petersen, BuildZoom, TechCrunch, Google, Figma, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, Jimmy Carter, Panama Canal Authority, United States Navy, Coinbase, Uber, AirbnbLinks:Connect with RyanXLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.comLearn more about Kleiner Perkins

Last week, Brex announced that it would be ditching its co-CEO model, and that got Equity hosts Haje Kamps and Mary Ann Azevedo wondering about co-CEO teams and the effectiveness of the structure overall.Brex, founded in 2017 by Pedro Franceschi and Henrique Dubugras, initially thrived under the co-CEO structure, with Pedro focusing on internal operations and Enrique handling external relations. However, as the company grew, this setup began to slow decision-making, prompting a shift to a single CEO model. Pedro will now lead as the sole CEO, while Enrique transitions to Chairman of the Board.We discuss the broader implications and challenges of co-CEO leadership, highlighting how this change aims to enhance agility and appeal to investors as Brex eyes a potential public offering. We also explore other companies that have adopted or abandoned similar leadership models, providing a comprehensive analysis of the pros and cons of shared CEO responsibilities in the competitive tech landscape.Equity will be back with a full rundown of the week's startup and venture news on Friday, but if you want more from TechCrunch podcasts until then, Darrell and Becca spoke to both Brex CEOs on Found last year about why the duo chose to go down the co-CEO path in the first place.Equity is TechCrunch's flagship podcast, produced by Theresa Loconsolo, and posts every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Spotify and all the casts.You also can follow Equity on X and Threads, at @EquityPod.

HENRIQUE'S BIO Henrique Dubugras is one of the most accomplished entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley and the world's youngest self-made billionaire added to the Forbes List in 2022. A true master, an entrepreneur who is now 28 years old and inarguably at the top of his game. His company building path started when he was twelve, when he started his first company. In his words: “I started coding when I was 12, because there was this game I wanted to play. It was like a paid game and my parents didn't want to pay for me; I figured out, if I learned how to code, I could play it for free.”  I've known Henrique for a number of years and in every conversation I learn something new, including in this one. Henrique is the Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Brex, the first of its kind corporate card for startups and small businesses valued at about $10 billion. Born and raised in Brazil, he launched payments company Pagar.me (“the Stripe of Brazil”) which happened to be Microsoft's Startup of the Year in 2014. He was sixteen! While still a teenager, the company had grown to process $1.5 billion in transaction volume and in the fall of 2016, Henrique sold the company and enrolled at Stanford. After eight months, he dropped out and founded Brex.  How he met his co-founder, Pedro Franceschi, is also the stuff of legend -- via a Twitter argument in 2012. The heated discussion turned into a Skype call that started a long friendship. They founded Pagar.me together, went to Stanford together, did Y Combinator together, and dropped out together to form Brex. The vision was and continues to be to reinvent the corporate credit card.  He currently sits on the boards of Expedia and Mercado Libre and is an advisor at Instituto Alpha Lumen near his hometown. “I got some legal notifications from Google about some patent thing after starting my first company at 12, I had no idea what patents were… I was just a kid hacker in Brazil.” “One of the craziest things I ever experienced, the weekend SVB blew up.” “The hardest part as a leader is figuring out where to spend your time, especially when people around you have many more ‘hours of flight' managing people.” HENRIQUE RELATED LINKS Brex Forbes Billionaire Profile Times Magazine: How SVB Crisis Boosted Brex Bloomberg Linea Joining Expedia's Board   GENERAL INFO| TOP OF THE GAME: Official website: https://topofthegame-thepod.com/ RSS Feed: https://feed.podbean.com/topofthegame-thepod/feed.xml Hosting service show website: https://topofthegame-thepod.podbean.com/ Javier's LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/javiersaade & Bio: https://tinyurl.com/36ufz6cs    SUPPORT & CONNECT: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/96934564 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61551086203755 Twitter: https://twitter.com/TOPOFGAMEpod Subscribe on Podbean: https://www.podbean.com/site/podcatcher/index/blog/vLKLE1SKjf6G Email us: info@topofthegame-thepod.com     THANK YOU FOR LISTENING – AVAILABLE ON ALL MAJOR PLATFORMS  

As Co-Founders and Co-CEOs of fintech startup Brex, Henrique Dubugras and Pedro Franceschi are true “friendpreneurs” – a​​nd they're not even 30 years old. As teens, they met over Twitter in Brazil, hacking and jailbreaking their way through high school. After their payment startup Pagar.me (“basically the Stripe of Brazil”) achieved success, they left Brazil for Silicon Valley, where they used their unique insight into the payments landscape to start Brex in 2017. Originally offering credit cards to startups, Brex has moved and scaled at incredible speed, reaching $100 million in revenue just 18 months after launch, and expanding from credit cards into a global spend management platform that both startups and enterprise customers rely on. Today, the company is valued at more than $12 billion. But scaling this big, this fast hasn't always been smooth. Henrique and Pedro share their journey, wisdom, and experience managing risk and making tough decisions and pivots. They also explain how their complementary skillsets, friendship, drive, and long-view approach fuel their ambition to build Brex into a global fintech powerhouse – one that's challenging established financial services and payments players.

Brex CEO Henrique Dubugras found himself playing an important role during the Silicon Valley Bank collapse. Brex is what you might call a neobank — not a traditional bank but rather a financial services provider that helps companies manage how they spend money, corporate cards, travel expenses and the rest. In the middle of the SVB collapse, Brex was more than just a spending management company. It was also a safe place to park money. Brex saw billions of deposits in a very short period of time, giving Dubugras a bird's-eye view of what was happening — and what was happening was not great for the banking system, especially in Silicon Valley. (Our own Liz Lopatto has been covering this in depth.) I wanted to hear Dubugras' perspective on SVB both as a fintech CEO and a founder himself, whether he thought the crisis was rational or just a panic caused by group texts and easy-to-use mobile banking interfaces, what he thinks will happen to the startup ecosystem next, and how much of an opportunity all this was for Brex. Dubugras is a young CEO. He just turned 27. He really surprised me with his depth here, and he will probably surprise some of you as well. Okay, Henrique Dubugras, CEO of Brex. Here we go.

Henrique Dubugras is the co-founder and co-CEO of Brex, most recently valued at $12.3 billion. Henrique joins Adam to share his journey and best lessons and advice. Henrique and Adam discuss a wide range of topics: entrepreneurship, leadership, mentorship, pivoting as a business and in your career, growth and scale, raising money, building winning teams and cultures, and more.

Brex is a fintech startup that aims to be a one-stop financial shop for startups and small businesses, offering a deposit account, a corporate credit card and lines of credit as well as expense management tools. Since its 2017 launch it's taken on over 20,000 clients from startups to well-known brands such as Airbnb and Door Dash. After the sudden collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, Brex was inundated with calls from businesses in need of immediate credit lines. Fortunately, they weren't required after the US government stepped in, but Brex founder and co-CEO Henrique Dubugras says the fall of SVB is a pivotal moment for the industry.  To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

On the heels of the pivotal collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), I recently talked with Henrique Dubugras, the Cofounder and Co-CEO of Brex, an integrated corporate card and spend management software company that has raised $1.5B in capital. As companies frantically exited their SVB accounts at a record pace, in one of the world's largest bank runs, Brex moved quickly to attract and support startups by fast tracking applications, maintaining card credit limits, and more than doubling FDIC insurance levels to $2.25M through their partner bank network. Smart moves, as Brex has since received billions of dollars of deposits from thousands of SVB clients—and is now looking to potentially raise billions more to help companies with emergency operational and payroll bridge loans. Henrique joined me for an episode of The Reboot Chronicles for a fascinating discussion about how they are rebooting the sector, what's next in FinTech, and provide an exclusive look inside Brex. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/rebootchronicles/message

The best advice Brex founder and co-CEO Henrique Dubugras ever received came from Snap CEO Evan Spiegel: The best CEOs, Spiegel told him, are “extremely authentic to themselves ... If you try to emulate being Elon Musk and you're not like that, you're just gonna fail.” This wisdom has empowered Dubugras and his co-founder, Pedro Franceschi, to focus on the places where they can be most effective at Brex, and to be more authentic with their coworkers. In this episode, Henrique and Joubin discuss coaches vs. therapy, mutual crushes, “hacker famous,” big egos, why missions are overrated, dropping out of college, CEO's identities, the “Silicon Valley mold,” trojan-horsing Max Levchin, pivoting after two years, going to the ground, compensation and hiring myths, core customers, fixing expense report policies, and joining the Expedia board.In this episode, we cover: Growing up in Brazil and Henrique's relationship with his mom (01:07) The first company he sold, Pagar.me, and his co-founder Pedro Franceschi (07:11) Becoming “successful” and why it's fine to have a “f**ked up motivation” (10:35) ADHD, dueling superpowers, and focusing on the right things (15:56) Being an authentic CEO and not reading books (19:51) The radical changes Brex has experienced in the past three years (24:40) Brex's new spend management product and landing initial customers (30:30) The messages sent by how Brex structures its employee compensation (34:07) How Henrique and Pedro recruited top talent when they were just getting started (38:57) Pivoting a $12 billion company: “We can't do all these things” (43:33) The challenges of becoming more of an enterprise company than a Fintech one (50:34) Links: Connect with Henrique Twitter LinkedIn Connect with Joubin Twitter LinkedIn Email: grit@kleinerperkins.com  Learn more about Kleiner Perkins

This week Darrell and Becca are joined by Brex co-founder and co-CEO Henrique Dubugras to chat about his corporate credit card and expense management startup. Henrique talked about what made him and his co-founder (Pedro Franceschi) decide to launch the company and why the friends, who met online as teenagers, decided to be co-CEOs. Henrique also talks about how Brex navigated changes at the startup this year, and how he personally handled layoffs, all while Darrell and Becca do a questionable job of hiding their disdain for Brex's legacy competitor.Take our listener survey and let us know a bit about yourself and what you think of FoundSubscribe to Found to hear more stories from founders each week.Connect with us:On TwitterOn InstagramVia email: found@techcrunch.com

What's top of mind for exceptional entrepreneurs? In the latest episode of Exchanges at Goldman Sachs, Goldman Sachs' Kim Posnett, global head of Investment Banking Services, sat down with two company founders — Henrique Dubugras, co-founder and co-CEO at Brex and Carolyn Childers, co-founder and CEO at Chief — to discuss their founder journeys, how their businesses are adapting to a challenging macro environment, and what they are most optimistic about for their futures. The episode was recorded at the firm's annual Builders and Innovators Summit. 

Henrique and his co-founder, Pedro, started their entrepreneurial journey at 16 when they started pagar.me. In the process of doing so, they learned a ton about what product market fit looks like and how difficult it is to run a profitable business.    Henrique and Pedro went on to stumble on quite the market opportunity: Why was it that startups were raising millions of dollars from VC funds but then struggling to get a corporate credit card with a $30,000 credit line? In short, they identified an underserved market with tons of latent demand and very little actual credit risk. These companies may have been considered ‘risky', but in reality, they were very credit-worthy.    5 years and change later, Brex has raised over $1.5Bn, employees well over 1,200 people, and is a market leader in the corporate credit card and spend management space.    Henrique joins Scott Britton and Andrei Newman on the Built By Humans podcast as they discuss how to design processes that scale with your company, the importance of focus, and why being extremely authentic is the key to being an effective leader. Here are some key takeaways from the conversation: The best CEOs are extremely authentic to themselves and build a team of people around them that allow them to be the best version of themselves.  Antiquated industry infrastructure can yield fantastic opportunities for disruption. In Brex's case, banking infrastructure prevented incumbents from underwriting customers daily which turned out to be a key differentiator for Brex.  Calculate the true cost of a new process before implementing it. Many processes make the lives of 99% of your people worse all in the name of preventing the 1% of times where things go wrong.  A CEOs job is to balance risk with speed and decide what types of risks they are willing to take on in order to move faster.   Doubling headcount doesn't mean double the output. Many times leadership bandwidth is the biggest bottleneck to productivity.  Focus is imperative. There will always be many strategic directions that have merit and value to your company but it's important to be okay ceding some to competitors in the name of doubling down on your core business.

Cryptocurrency is soaking up attention, but financial services technologies involving fiat currency have also never been hotter. This week we continue our special five-episode series on The Information 50, our annual list of the most promising startups valued at less than $1 billion, by taking a look at five fintech startups that made the cut. In this episode, The Information's Amir Efrati speaks with reporter Kate Clark about the startups that made our list, why “banking as a service” is on the rise, and why this year's record $87 billion in fintech startup funding doesn't represent the peak. Then Kate interviews Itai Damti, co-founder of Unit, the top startup on our list, and Henrique Dubugras, co-founder and co-CEO of corporate card startup Brex, about the fintech frenzy and what's coming next.

Look, launching your first product is tough. Of course. But as someone somewhere might've once said: It's the second product that can kill you. Henrique Dubugras launched Brex as a corporate credit card for early-stage companies. And the company's second product, Brex Cash, was met with high customer (and investor) expectations. But after a series of pushed releases and a bunch of missing tools, Henrique started questioning everything. Henrique talks about how he made the decisions to keep pushing the launch of the product, how he rethought the definition of success, and ultimately, pulled it all off.

Henrique Dubugras morou em vários lugares ao longo da vida. Passou por Campos do Jordão, Taubaté e até destinos internacionais, como Berlim e Whistler, no Canadá. Hoje, está em São Francisco nos Estados Unidos, onde se tornou conhecido como a pessoa mais jovem do mundo a fundar um unicórnio. Em 2017, ao lado do sócio Pedro Franceschi, fundou a Brex, startup que desburocratizou o serviço de oferta de cartões de crédito corporativos. Neste episódio, ele conta os aprendizados de sua trajetória como um jovem empreendedor e suas metas para o futuro.

Launching your first product is hard. But the second one? It can make or break your company. Henrique Dubugras launched Brex as a corporate credit card for early-stage companies. But as the company grew, their second product Brex Cash was met with weightier investor and customer expectations, missing tools, and one giant question mark over Henrique's head. Henrique talks about how he made the decisions around why he kept pushing the launch of the product, how he measured for success, and ultimately, pulled it all off.

Henrique Dubugras taught himself how to code as a teenager. He met his co-founder, Pedro Franceschi, over an argument on Twitter, which ended up turning them into best friends. The Brazilian tech duo went on to join teams at different startups and even start a few business projects. In 2013, they founded payments company Pagar.me — the Stripe of Brazil — when he was only sixteen years old.Pagar.me was sold in 2016, and Henrique enrolled at Stanford University. But he left after just a few months to follow his entrepreneurial instincts. In YC, him and Pedro started Brex, a B2B fintech that is an all-in-one finance for business, disrupting the century-old industry of banking small companies.Brex became a unicorn in record time. One year after its first product was released, it was valued at US$2.6Bn. Today, it's worth US$7Bn.In this episode, learn more about:Henrique's thoughts on fundraising and super high valuationsHow Henrique and Pedro make it work as co-CEOsAnd what is harder and easier about founding a company in the US vs in BrazilStarting something new?Visit latitud.com to learn about the Latitud Fellowship program.

My guest today is Henrique Dubugras, co-founder and CEO of Brex, an all-in-one finance account for businesses. Brex recently raised funding at a valuation of over 7 billion dollars despite being founded only four years ago. In our conversation, we cover Brex’s transition from a credit card for start-ups to the central account for businesses, why building that central account was orders of magnitude more difficult than expected, and the difference between building a business in Brazil and the US. We also discussed Henrique’s term horizon for building Brex and how that impacts his decision-making for the business.

As a self-taught teenage computer programmer in Brazil, Henrique Dubugras launched his first company, Pagar.me at age 16. After he sold it, Henrique was accepted and enrolled at Stanford, but dropped out early to follow his entrepreneurial instincts. This led him to co-found Brex with Pedro Franceschi, a business-to-business fintech unicorn disrupting the century old industry of banking small businesses.

In this episode, my guest is Henrique Dubugras, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Brex, a financial operating system for startups and growing companies, with services including a charge card, cash management, and controls in a single account. Originally from Brazil, Henrique built a payments company when he was only sixteen and in just three years grew it to process over $1.5 billion in processed transactions. Shortly thereafter, he co-founded Brex along with Pedro Franceschi. In this interview, we talk about: - Henrique’s story from entrepreneur, to Stanford student, to Stanford dropout and Brex co-founder - How he met his co-founder, Pedro, and their inspiration to launch Brex - Their significant decision to move Brex into a remote-first company and what that means for them - The importance of company culture and some key lessons for fintech founders - And a whole lot more! Henrique Dubugras Henrique Dubugras is Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Brex — the smartest corporate card in the room. A Brazilian entrepreneur, Henrique built payments company Pagar.me — the Stripe of Brazil — when he was sixteen years old. In just three years, Pagar.me grew to US$1.5 billion in volume of transactions processed. In the fall of 2016, Henrique sold Pagar.me and enrolled at Stanford University. After eight months, he left school and founded Brex. About Brex Brex is reimagining financial systems so every growing company can realize its full potential. By rebuilding from scratch the entire technology stack for credit card issuing, storing and transferring money, Brex has designed financial software that avoids previously painful banking problems. Traditional banking systems are broken; previously neither founders nor their businesses had access to great financial perks and benefits that their corporate counterparts enjoyed. Brex created products for fast moving companies that are intuitive, well designed, and have more powerful functionality than anything on the market. At its core, Brex exists to empower every growing company to dream bigger. In June 2018 Brex launched the first corporate card and rewards program designed for Startups. Brex reimagined every aspect of corporate cards, including 10-20x higher limits than traditional cards, tailored rewards with points on every purchase, and no personal guarantee for founders. This is a radically better experience for customers. In Fall 2019, Brex introduced its second product, Brex Cash. A first-of-its-kind cash management account that enables companies to simplify financial operations, pay for expenses and grow their business, all with zero fees. As a unified platform, Brex brings together the ability to store money and pay bills in a single, elegant dashboard replete with integrations to other financial software -- a new vision for the autonomous finance function. Having started as part of the Y Combinator accelerator program in 2017, the team has grown to over 400 people. Based in San Francisco, Brex has raised over US$465 million in venture capital, with support from Kleiner Perkins Growth, YC Continuity Fund, Greenoaks Capital, Ribbit Capital, IVP, DST, as well as fintech insiders like Peter Thiel and Max Levchin. Brex has also raised over $510 million in debt funding from Barclays. As of writing it is worth $3 billion.

Henrique Dubugras of Brex joins Nick to discuss the Blazing Fast Path to $B+; Binary Outcomes; The Fintech Revolution; and A New Approach to Employee Comp. In this episode, we cover: Background -- path that led to Brex? Origin story for Brex Tag-line / One sentence overview What's so different about Brex? Why is more than just a credit card? How has the pandemic affected the business thus far? What do you offer that no one else does? Who do you consider to be competition? What is the moat here - why can't another well funded startup replicate your offering? A criticism I've heard is that, when businesses need credit most, when bank balance/working capital is low, is when Brex cuts off access to credit. What's your response? How would you describe your leadership philosophy? Are you recruiting/hiring? Is the approach different while 100% remote? What's the compensation structure at Brex? One of the fastest companies to multi-billion+ valuation -- more pressure w/ all that capital? With the raise and expectations some suggest that the outcome is binary -- is it? What advice do you have for early-stage, pre-A, founders trying to build a venture scale business? To listen more, please visit http://fullratchet.net/podcast-episodes/ for all of our other episodes.

And recently, the firm launched Brex Cash, a business cash management account that helps companies simplify their financial operations and grow their businesses. Brex co-founder Henrique Dubugras joins me on the podcast to talk about the evolution of the company’s product portfolio and the company’s plans for the near future. From there, he shares his views on where the payments industry is headed in 2020 and beyond. Henrique Dubugras is my guest on the Tearsheet Podcast.
