Timothy Allen talks with Massimo Mazzone.
On today's show I’m talking with somebody who I consider to be one of the key individuals in the Free Cities Movement. He is the incredibly successful entrepreneur who is both the brains and the finance behind Ciudad Morazán, Honduras’s so called blue-collar Free City.
Massimo is a life-long Libertarian who saw an opportunity to create a unique passion project when the Honduran government passed its ZEDE legislation back in 2013. The ongoing result is Morazán, one of the world’s flagship Free City projects, but one that you probably know the least about since Massimo is not in the business of either self-promotion or promoting Morazán to potential investors.
Massimo’s dreams for Ciudad Morazán are big as you will hear in the conversation and I hope that you will also pick up on the genuine enthusiasm he has for both Honduras and its people. I came away from the discussion feeling very optimistic, even after hearing about Morazán's current legal battles which are somewhat stifling the project in the short term.
Enjoy the conversation.
