UnBoxMe Experiences

Candice S. Pascoal has spent her career asking a question few innovators pause to consider long enough. What if technology could be elegant, ethical, and deeply human all at once. As a best-selling author, award-winning tech innovator, and CEO of Alfredus, Kickante, and UnBoxMe, she has built a body of work that sits comfortably between high performance systems and high consciousness thinking

Based in New York City, Candice is the founder and chief architect of Alfredus.co, a boutique innovation agency trusted by some of the world’s most iconic luxury and global brands. Her work is not about chasing trends or rapid digitalization for its own sake. Instead, she focuses on intentional innovation, designing ecosystems that align technology, brand identity, and long-term impact. Alfredus operates quietly but decisively, partnering with leaders who understand that innovation is most powerful when it enhances meaning rather than erodes it

Candice’s credibility in this space was built long before innovation became a fashionable label. She is the founder of Kickante, Latin America’s largest crowdfunding platform, a venture that reshaped access to capital across the region. Through Kickante, thousands of entrepreneurs, creatives, and social impact projects were able to raise funding outside traditional financial gatekeeping. The platform became a cornerstone for financial inclusion, positioning Candice as a pioneer in fintech with a clear social conscience

Her entrepreneurial journey continued with UnBoxMe.club, an exclusive members club based in New York City created for philosophers, authors, innovators, philanthropists, and global change-makers. Unlike traditional networking spaces, UnBoxMe was designed as a salon for ideas. A place where intellectual curiosity, ethical debate, and future-facing conversations could exist without performance or pressure. It reflects Candice’s belief that progress requires depth, not just scale

Throughout her career, Candice has demonstrated an unusual ability to move between worlds that rarely intersect. Technology and luxury. Systems and storytelling. Business and philosophy. She has collaborated with globally recognized institutions and brands, including initiatives connected to Cartier, bringing innovation into spaces that demand both refinement and responsibility

As an author and thought leader, Candice extends this work into language. Her writing explores the role of technology in shaping human behavior, power structures, and opportunity. She challenges founders and leaders to question not only what they are building, but why. Her ideas resonate particularly strongly with women entrepreneurs navigating spaces that demand both authority and authenticity

What distinguishes Candice is not the number of ventures she has founded, but the coherence between them. Each project reflects the same underlying principles. Access over exclusion. Depth over spectacle. Impact over ego. She builds platforms that give people agency, whether through capital, conversation, or technology

Looking toward 2026, Candice Pascoal represents a new archetype of womanpreneur. One who understands that leadership today is not about domination, but stewardship. That innovation is not about disruption alone, but responsibility. And that the future will be shaped not just by those who build the fastest, but by those who build with intention

In a world accelerating toward automation and abstraction, Candice remains grounded in a simple conviction. Technology should serve humanity, not replace it. Through her work, she continues to prove that it can do both, beautifully and at scale
