About

Cresud is one of Latin America’s most notable agriculture companies and a key component in the Argentinean economy, with operations including the production of basic agricultural commodities across the continent, with recent expansion in Brazil in particular. Bolstering the company’s presence in these new business ventures is Maximiliano Venditti Castro, the lawyer and business development manager at the company who has been involved in the legal aspects of the business for several years. Having a legal career spanning over 15 years, Castro is well-placed to offer corporate and legal support to the company across the region. His mixture of roles demonstrates the commercial intelligence of his legal work, understanding that the in-house legal role is now one of facilitating and protection rather than prevention.
