Where We Are › São Paulo
Our Brazil operation, run by a team that has sat on the other side of the table: at the National Confederation of Industry, at BNDES, and inside the country's largest industrial groups. It's also where the SOSA Leaders Forum was born.
Manufacturing, mining, steel and cement, pulp and paper, energy, and consumer goods. These are companies that own physical assets at enormous scale, where a percentage point of efficiency is worth more than most software businesses earn in a year, and where nothing gets adopted without being proved on a real line.
That is the work here: taking the global technology market to operators who can only say yes to something that survives contact with their own plant.
SOSA's result-driven methodology made all the difference. This success case is a powerful example of what's possible when the right players come together.
