Marcel Imery is the founder of Venezuela-based law firm Imery Urdaneta, a professor, and an entrepreneur navigating one of the most challenging business and political environments in the world. In advance of his TEDx talk in Caracas (where he will address the importance of values and principles in the effort to “Re-Write the Venezuelan Identity”), we sat down with Marcel to learn about how he and his partners are forging opportunity in a cauldron of corruption and uncertainty.
