Living 11 years in London, Bernardo worked at some of the largest digital creative companies such as DDB London, SapientNitro and AgencyRepublic and as a Live TV Ops Director at Bloomberg Television.
As an entrepreneur, Bernie launched in 2007 a digital media production agency: Bravo Media delivering key campaigns for various London West End Musicals such as Billy Elliot and Hairspray.
After a 6-month period in Australia in 2016, Bernie returned to Latin America with a new idea: a global network for digital professionals: TheBridge.social. The company received investment from Latin America’s biggest accelerator: Startup Chile. Bernie founded, bootstrapped and built the Latin-american digital talent network into a 300-strong team working with global clients like Mckinsey, Santander, Uber and Walmart.
In only 7 years from founding the company, a successful exit in 2023: The Bridge was acquired by Gi Group Holding the Italian HR conglomerate.
Today Bernie is helping animals via AruanaSociety.org and supporting other startups on their growth.
