"Definitely a very enriching experience, as we worked in teams formed by different profiles, where each one contributed something different and essential for the project.
In my case, I helped monetize everything. In the end, the idea is to make it a business, but if it does not generate money, even if the idea is very good, it is not a business. So I came up with the idea of systematizing the process of services we provided to companies, developing space sales metrics and systematization to reduce costs.
If you have the opportunity, I highly encourage you to do it. You're going to meet new people, you're going to learn, and I think you may even come out of here a person who creates a real business idea that will someday be recognized. "
