International impact
Brazil is the #1 overseas software development destination for North American tech companies. Leading US tech giants have set up innovation centers in Brazil, further boosting the location. According to the Kearney Global Services Location Index, Brazil is considered as one of the top 5 IT outsourcing destinations worldwide regarding business environment, people availability and skills.
Cultural synergy
Brazilian mindset and culture are European rooted. The middle-classes tend to dominate the tech industry, and English-language teaching is standard in private schools. These cultural similarities and strong English skills allow Brazilian developers to connect at ease with international colleagues in overseas projects.
Real-time collaboration
The time difference between BRT and CET is 4 hours only, allowing for straightforward real-time communication and smooth handling of cross-border projects. That is why more than 2000 European companies have their Latin America headquarters based in Sao Paulo.
