Cardano Foundation announced its partnership with Brazil’s state-owned oil company Petrobras to provide blockchain education and explore exemplary technology use cases in the energy sector. According to the announcement made on December 20th, blockchain training workshops will be organized for Petrobras’ 45,000 employees, and the content related to the subject will be offered to the employees through Petrobras University by Cardano Academy.
Blockchain Education from Cardano Academy
Founded in 1953, Petrobras became the largest company in Brazil and South America in 2022 with a revenue of $124.7 billion. The program will include various blockchain applications and use case examples, as well as interactive quizzes.
To celebrate the launch of the program, Cardano Foundation conducted two workshop sessions in the Metaverse, examining blockchain regulations in Brazil and many parts of the world. CEO of Cardano Foundation, Frederik Gregaard, shared the following remarks:
“Our partnership with Petrobras, a Fortune 500 company and one of the world’s largest public companies, highlights both the appetite of businesses for blockchain education and the growing reach of the Cardano Foundation and its mission. We are excited to partner with Petrobras and look forward to working with them to both provide education and explore new applications of blockchain technology.”
Cardano Foundation and the Blockchain Industry
Participants will receive a certificate after completing the blockchain education and successfully passing the exam. In addition, the first 500 participants in the training will receive NFTs created in collaboration with the Petrobras Education Board. These NFTs will dynamically change to reflect each participant’s progress and milestones throughout the education; serving as a digital tracker and showcase of individual achievements.

The partnership is in line with one of Cardano’s fundamental goals announced for the five-year period in 2021.
