68. Douro Valley & Global Strategy with Felipe Monteiro
Felipe Monteiro teaches Global Strategy at INSEAD, Europe’s top MBA program. Professor Monteiro also serves as both Academic Director of the Global Talent Competitiveness Index and Director of the Programa de Gestao Avancada, which advises Brazilian CEOs, business owners, and top executives.
Professor Monteiro is an avid wine collector and has researched globalization in the wine industry. In 2020, he wrote a case study about Quinta do Vallado and the international market for Douro Valley wines. For this episode, Chris and Felipe chat about the research that goes into writing a good case study for business school, the difference and convergence of new world and old world wine, the formation of the “Douro Boys” consortium, innovations in brand strategy, Brazil’s emerging sparkling wine production, the preponderance of unicorn tech startups in Brazil, as well as the intrinsic relationship between wine and travel.
