Camilo Escalante of Rate & Ramova Theatre

My guest today is Camilo Escalante, the Executive Director of Diverse Segments for Rate, and we’re really going to cover some ground. The episode was recorded live in the Ramova Theatre, so you’ll need to pardon some of the echoes, but what an amazing venue, we even had the energy of that nights performance soundchecking towards the end of the interview.Camilo is an accomplished Chicagoan making a real impact both for his community and on the national stage. We’ll start by diving into the opportunity he saw to launch an industry first end to end lending platform in Spanish, then navigate to his role and insights on the opening of Ramova Theatre and brewery in Bridgeport.Many of the details he shares are inspiring whether you’re working in a company or starting something new, I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did.
