Felix Bravo Nomeado Diretor Administrativo Internacional na eXp Realty

Impulsionando o Próximo Capítulo do Crescimento Centrado em Agentes Globais

BELLINGHAM, Wash., May 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —  A eXp Realty®, “the most agent–centric real estate brokerage on the planet™” e a principal subsidiária da eXp World Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXPI), anunciou hoje a promoção de Felix Bravo a Diretor Executivo Internacional — um passo fundamental para acelerar a missão da empresa de criar a corretora global mais capacitadora do mundo.

Bravo realizou alguns dos lançamentos internacionais de maior sucesso da história da empresa, incluindo no Peru e na Turquia — cada um marcado pela liderança local confiável, forte ativação de agentes e sistemas escaláveis criados a partir do zero. O Egito é o próximo, com vários mercados em desenvolvimento com a eXp progredindo em direção à sua meta para 2030: 50 países e 50.000 agentes em todo o mundo.

Nesse papel importante, Bravo liderará o crescimento internacional e a inovação baseada em círculos — para a criação de uma infraestrutura focada no agente em todos os países e a capacitação de líderes regionais para lançar, dimensionar e sustentar o sucesso do agente em nível local.

“Felix está desenvolvendo o manual para escala global — com base na confiança, nos sistemas e no sucesso do agente”, disse Glenn Sanford, Fundador da eXp Realty e CEO da eXp World Holdings. “Além dos lançamentos nos países — ele está capacitando a liderança e criando infraestrutura que ajuda os agentes a prosperar em qualquer lugar. Isso irá permitir que ele duplique o que já está funcionando.”

O mandato de Bravo inclui o lançamento com precisão operacional em novos países, e o reforço dos países existentes por meio da autonomia local e o impulso do alinhamento global entre a capacitação de agentes, a infraestrutura tecnológica e as operações baseadas em IA.

“Estou muito feliz em dar continuidade a esse crescimento”, disse Bravo. “Vi o que o modelo da eXp pode fazer quando é liderado localmente e conectado globalmente”, disse Bravo. “Este próximo capítulo é sobre a ampliação desse poder — criação de sistemas duráveis, de líderes que prosperam e de comunidades de agentes que se fortalecem em conjunto.”

Com Bravo no comando, a eXp Realty entra na sua fase mais ousada da expansão internacional — incansavelmente focada nos resultados dos agentes, na escala tecnológica e no crescimento durável em todos os mercados.
