Rodrigo Riccetto

Activist, Engineer, Performer

Rodrigo has been all over the place. Got a few scholarships to study in different places in areas ranging from entrepreneurship to meditation. Because of that he was able to create connections and opportunities across borders.

Learning by creating new connections and opportunities, trying new things, throwing myself in new experiences just to see how it all work out.

Just imagine that we had Artificial Intelligence and Robots advanced enough to do any single job in the world. Imagine that people in poor rural areas buy one of these robots to plant and harvest, and with the profits they pay in installments. That Artificial Intelligence provide higher gain rates than doctors, or engineers. Every single job could be better performed by a machine. Jobs would become optional. Human spirit would then be free to pursue it's passion. What would happen with currency? How would the transition happen? What would people do with their lives? More important, what is necessary to be done now, in order to get there and find out?

Years ago, I still remember the first TED Talk I watched over the internet. It was 2013, I was taking leadership workshops, starting to question my own purpose and where I wanted to be in the future. In one of these workshops I saw the keynote about the Golden Circle, by Simon Sinek. It was an interesting approach that changed my angle on many ways of looking into life. Now, I hope I will be able to organize one in my region to help prepare the terrain for even more experiences like these may arise so even more people be inspired for ideas that are indeed worth sharing, as we never know how they may change a person's life, nor the impact of that person in the world.

Circus. I am a pretty good circus artist focused on silk!
