Start up companies

Self Storage in Madrid, Spain

Along with his partners, Mr. Quinn directed the funding, development, and start up operations of a self-storage business in Madrid, Spain.

Housing in Curitaba, Brazil

Along with China, India, and Russian, Brazil is recognized as one of the top four growth markets in the world. Mr. Quinn and two other U.S. based partners with many years of experience in developing homes have formed a joint venture with a developer in Curitiba. This city of more than 2 million residents is a prosperous metropolitan area supported by the area’s enormous agriculture as well as a high concentration of automobile manufacturing plants. The joint venture’s first project, a ten-unit entry level housing project, has been completed and sold.
