They are two of the most passionate people I have met in this space! In this interview we talk about their backstory, how BRAVO started, and where it is today.<\/p>\n<p>The company was founded in 2014 by TechCrunch Disrupt Battlefield Alumni, Maria Luna, MBA and Dr. Hector Rodriguez. Hector is a physician with a background in research and technology while Maria holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from the University of Texas in Austin. Together, they have launched several startup businesses in technology, marketing and the medical field.<\/p>\n<p>The BRAVO beta version was recently featured on ABC\u2019s Shark Tank in November 2017 where BRAVO landed a deal on the show.<\/p>\n<p>BRAVO\u2019s successful beta test and deployment is due to their community integration into the feedback process and encouragement of members and users to assist in creating the optimal payment solution for everyone. The next milestone for BRAVO was to integrate these payments onto the blockchain to create a truly secure payment solution, the BVO token and ecosystem. <\/p>\n<p>The BRAVO blockchain and BVO token project started in early 2017 driven by our team of engineers and will be ready for consumer use in Q2-2019.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about BRAVO and their upcoming ICO!<\/p>\n<p>Whitepaper &#8211; https:\/\/bvo.trybravo.com\/BRAVO_Whitep&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Website &#8211; https:\/\/bvo.trybravo.com\/<\/p>\n<p>Sign up for the BVO airdrop fueled by RFR &#8211; http:\/\/bvo.trybravo.com\/?refer=94435<\/p>\n<p>Telegram &#8211; https:\/\/t.me\/BRAVOPay<\/p>\n<h3>More info on BRAVO Pay Interview with Co Founders Hector &#038; Maria<\/h3>\n<div class=\"ss-local-rss\"><div class=\"rss_header\"><h2><a href=\"https:\/\/cn.bing.com\/news\/search\/?q=BRAVO+Pay+Interview+with+Co+Founders+Hector+%26+Maria&amp;qft=sortbydate%3D%221%22&amp;format=rss\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"rss_title\">BRAVO Pay Interview with Co Founders Hector & Maria - BingNews<\/a><br \/><span class=\"rss_description\"> Search results<\/span><\/h2><\/div><ul>\n            <li>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bing.com\/news\/apiclick.aspx?ref=FexRss&amp;aid=&amp;tid=663080310c164149a617617b6dfffb61&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hindustantimes.com%2Fbusiness%2Fbharatpe-co-founder-ashneer-grover-set-to-re-enter-fintech-space-with-this-app-101712920524568.html&amp;c=1775223298335905298&amp;mkt=en-us\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBharatPe co-founder Ashneer Grover set to re-enter fintech space with this app\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>BharatPe co-founder and former managing director Ashneer Grover is all set to re-enter the fintech industry with a brand new application with the aim of providing hassle-free medical loans.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n            \n            <li>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bing.com\/news\/apiclick.aspx?ref=FexRss&amp;aid=&amp;tid=663080310c164149a617617b6dfffb61&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ndtv.com%2Findia-news%2Fplease-be-very-careful-snapdeal-co-founder-kunal-bahl-on-protein-supplements-5426934&amp;c=4626436149056534714&amp;mkt=en-us\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\"Please Be Very Careful\": Snapdeal Co-Founder On Protein Supplements\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Kunal Bahl, Co-founder of Snapdeal and early-stage VC firm Titan Capital, on Friday revealed that he once took protein supplements which created serious health problems for him.
