Building Loadsmart with Felipe Capella
10/28/21 • 56 min
On this episode of FreightWaves Insiders, Dooner catches up with Loadsmart co-founder and co-CEO Felipe Capella. Find out how this Brazilian-born entrepreneur has helped build a FreightTech company that’s raised over $146 million.
Felipe is an amateur photographer, plays guitar, piano and Brazilian cavaquinho, has been to 47 countries and was granted the Extraordinary Ability in Business visa from the US Immigration Department. He is always ready to discuss and learn from behavioral and evolutionary psychology, economics and development, history and art (but not the modern one).
Random fact: his UPenn colleagues granted him the Funniest Person award, and voted him to a first-place-draw as Best Cook and Most Likely to Appear on the Cover of Times Magazine.
