The popular cryptocurrency project Cardano (ADA) has partnered with Brazil’s state-owned energy company Petrobras. As a result of the collaboration, the first initiative will be leading blockchain training workshops for the Brazilian organization’s employees.
Cardano’s Major Partnership
Participants in the program will have the opportunity to learn about the characteristics of the cryptocurrency sector, discuss the potential of blockchain, and complete “interactive quizzes” on related topics. The Cardano Foundation has already conducted two workshops in the Metaverse. One focused on global perspectives and regulations in the Brazil region.
Headquartered in Rio de Janeiro, Petrobras, with over 45,000 employees and an annual revenue of approximately 125 billion dollars, is among the largest companies in Latin America. Participants who complete Cardano’s education program will receive a special certificate, and the first 500 participants will be given a non-fungible token (NFT) to highlight their achievements. Cardano Foundation CEO Frederik Gregaard commented on the agreement, stating the project’s goal as follows:
“Empowerment through education is a central part. Our partnership with Petrobras, a Fortune 500 company and one of the world’s largest publicly traded companies, highlights both the appetite of businesses for blockchain education and the increasing reach of the Cardano Foundation and its mission.”
The Brazilian company also emphasized the partnership, describing it as “a significant step forward in our mission to leverage the power of blockchain for new use cases in the energy sector.”
ADA Developments
In addition to offering educational programs in Brazil, Cardano had previously provided such services on the African continent. The project partnered with the Ethiopian Ministry of Education in April 2021 to create a blockchain-based national identity system expected to reach 3,500 schools, 5 million students, and 750,000 teachers.
Shortly thereafter, Input Output and World Mobile Group announced a collaboration aimed at improving access to social, digital, and financial services in Tanzania through Cardano’s blockchain.
