Gabriel Liguori Is Co-Founder of TissueLabs and Highlights the Importance of Project Management for the Evolution of the Healthcare Sector
Project Management Institute (PMI) announced the 2023 list Future 50, which features 50 rising leaders who are transforming the world and reshaping the future through projects. These 50 individuals represent a new group of project professionals driving transformation across all PMI regions and various sectors.
Among the 50 honorees is Brazilian Gabriel Liguori, co-founder of the biotechnology startup TissueLabs. Recognized and named in the Forbes Under 30 and MIT Innovator Under 35 lists, Gabriel directs his energies toward regenerative medicine, where he creates organs and tissues grown in laboratories. The ultimate goal is to develop artificial organs to address the shortage of organs needed for transplantation, a passion that arose when he faced a cardiac anomaly in childhood that required surgical intervention.
Gabriel’s scientific credentials are impressive, with a degree in medicine and doctorates in thoracic surgery, cardiovascular surgery, and cardiovascular regenerative medicine. However, achieving this ambitious goal also requires skills and knowledge in project management.

“By harnessing the power of strategic project management, we not only enhance innovation but also foster ongoing collaboration. This allows a high-caliber team, like Gabriel’s, to consistently achieve milestones and turn the dream of regenerative organs into an attainable reality.”, says Ricardo Triana, General Director of Project Management Institute (PMI) Latin America.
With the technological advances in the global health landscape, accelerated after the COVID-19 pandemic, the sector has demonstrated resilience by adopting innovative solutions, and Brazil has been carving out a space in this movement, ranking 19th in the listing of nations by participation in clinical studies initiated in 2021, according to a survey by Interfarma.
According to a survey by Global Market Insights, the international healthcare market is projected to exceed US$ 504.4 billion by 2025, and the country is expected to continue contributing new solutions and ideas to transform global well-being and drive its evolution in this crucial field.
In today’s world, global megatrends, such as digital disruption, demographic shifts, and the climate crisis, are driving the future of business and society. At the same time, the global economy needs 25 million new project professionals by 2030. The honorees of the 2023 Future 50 are collectively setting an example and leading problem-solving efforts while creating a better world through projects.
In addition to Gabriel, the honorees in Latin America include: Felipe Lara Leyva (Mexico), Fred Camus Yeomans (Chile), Scarlin Marcelina Gómez Tejada (Dominican Republic), Lêmnec Tiller (Colombia) and Tomás Giovanetti, CEO and Founder of TGA Entertainment, from Argentina, who created a startup applying gaming to corporate marketing and social issues and currently leads a large team with projects in Brazil, Paraguay, Mexico, and Spain.
