DOMO Invest Invests R$3.5m in Brazilian Edtech Digital Innovation One (em português)

February 11, 2021
DOMO Invest Invests in DIO

DOMO Invest invested R$3.5m in Digital Innovation One (DIO), a Brazilian edtech offering software development courses and connecting students to companies in search of technical talent. 

(Valor Econômico) – O empreendedor Iglá Generoso, 42, natural de Araraquara, interior de São Paulo, acredita que a tecnologia mudou a sua vida. De família de classe média baixa, perdeu o pai quando tinha 14 anos de idade e logo foi trabalhar para ajudar no sustento da casa. Em paralelo, comprou um livro básico de programação e começou a estudar. “Foi quando percebi que esse mundo da tecnologia poderia me levar mais longe”, diz.

Ele estava certo. Como programador, teve a oportunidade de trabalhar no Vale do Silício, nos Estados Unidos, e em mercados europeus. Em um desses projetos, conheceu Gustavo Pereira, 26, e Pablo Zaniolo, 26. Juntos, descobriram que compartilhavam histórias de vida parecidas.

No final de 2018, notando a demanda por profissionais da área, tiveram a ideia de criar uma plataforma de educação gratuita. Assim, nascia a DIO (Digital Innovation One), uma escola de programação que conecta seus alunos a empresas em busca de mão de obra tecnológica. A startup cobra um valor dos empregadores, que têm a oportunidade de criar em conjunto com a plataforma cursos e jornadas educativas relacionadas aos desafios encarados no dia a dia dos seus negócios.
