Ehsan's Market Analysis

Sao Paulo is an underrated market for green technology. While most attention goes to Silicon Valley, Sao Paulo's 2,800+ startups are building companies adapted to local market dynamics. The $40K average salary creates interesting unit economics for bootstrapped and capital-efficient companies. My recommendation: start with a niche, own it, then expand.
