The Cardano Foundation and Serviço Federal de Processamento de Dados (SERPRO) are joining forces to modernize Brazil’s public sector.
This partnership focuses on accelerating blockchain adoption while promoting digital literacy through Cardano Academy’s training programs.
Cardano Foundation Partners with SERPRO
This move builds upon Brazil’s globally recognized digital governance framework. According to the World Bank, Brazil ranks second worldwide in digital government maturity.
Meanwhile, SERPRO, the world’s largest state-owned IT company, is instrumental in this accomplishment. Its technological infrastructure supports 90% of Brazil’s federal government systems.
The company manages over 750 digital solutions, handling 33 billion transactions annually. It also oversees more than 30.4 petabytes of data across multiple cloud platforms.
The collaboration seeks to harness SERPRO’s deep expertise in public administration alongside Cardano’s blockchain technology. Frederik Gregaard, CEO of the Cardano Foundation, underscored the nature of this partnership.
“Our collaboration with SERPRO represents a transformative step in modernizing Brazil’s public sector infrastructure through blockchain education and technology,” Gregaard stated.
This initiative aims to enhance transparency, accountability, and efficiency in government operations and benefit millions of Brazilian citizens.
Beyond blockchain integration, education remains a key focus of this alliance. The Cardano Academy aims to provide SERPRO employees with in-depth blockchain training.
The program will feature masterclasses, technical workshops, and certification courses, which will strengthen the participants’ understanding of blockchain technology.
“By combining SERPRO’s extensive public sector expertise with Cardano’s blockchain infrastructure, we’re positioning Brazil at the forefront of digital government transformation,” President of SERPRO, Alexandre Gonçalves de Amorim, said.
Notably, this is the first instance in which SERPRO has teamed up with an international organization for educational initiatives. Nonetheless, The Cardano Foundation has previously collaborated with Brazil’s energy company in December 2023.
Meanwhile, as the foundation continues to expand its global presence, Cardano’s native token, ADA, has also made headlines for recent US developments. The token saw a significant surge after being named one of the altcoins in President Trump’s crypto reserve.
However, the gains were short-lived. Following President Trump’s executive order for a strategic Bitcoin reserve, Bitcoin (BTC) and other altcoins took a nosedive. As of press time, ADA was trading at $0.87, reflecting a drop of 7.52% over the past day.
