FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE
The platform is the operational expression of a discipline I have been practicing since 2005. What began as the Cria Brasil Program at IBEV — an applied entrepreneurship pedagogy co-created with Prof. Adonai Lacruz — was refined over two decades of educational-management practice in Brazil, and has been active in the United States since 2022. The three verticals here — Corporate, Entrepreneurship, and Applied Financial Education — reflect the same core discipline, adapted to the U.S. institutional context.
