A-PONTE

A-PONTE is a CultTech that brings together art, education, and technology to democratize access to culture in Brazil and around the world.

With an innovation-driven approach, we design, enable, and produce cultural projects that generate positive impact by connecting two essential pillars: on one side, artists, creatives, and tech entrepreneurs; on the other, companies, investors, and governments.

By combining creativity with technological innovation, we foster a rich exchange of experiences. Always with a focus on sustainability and accessibility, we expand culture’s reach and encourage social engagement.

Our mission is to build connections that promote economic and cultural development across all regions of Brazil — always through collaboration and transparency. This is why we work to build bridges between culture, education, and technology: the very connections that will shape Brazil’s future.
