01 The ecosystem
An ecosystem of businesses and people.
hc.co is an ecosystem of companies founded by Heitor Castro in 2015, based in São Paulo and Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. It brings together investments in more than ten sectors and manages each one with the same philosophy: the right people, clear processes and numbers in plain sight.
That beginning left us a method: step in where there is an operation to organize, and stay as long as it needs applied intelligence.
02 Where we operate
Different sectors, one single door: smart money.
What ties the group’s investments together is not the market, it is the way they are managed. Each business has its own intelligence and relies on the ecosystem’s structure: people, finance, marketing and technology.
Management and governance
Corporate governance, restructuring, controllership and operational efficiency.
Coworking
Flexible corporate spaces, community and shared services.
Marketing
Brand positioning, performance, content and customer acquisition.
Media and communication
Journalism, digital audience and content distribution.
Technology
Software, data and artificial intelligence applied to business.
Food and hospitality
Food service, experience and food and beverage operations.
Real estate
Real estate assets, leasing and asset management.
Wellness
Health, well-being and longevity.
Education
Knowledge, training and leadership development.
Tourism
Ecotourism and nature experiences.
03 How we work
Three verbs, in this order.
Create
Start businesses from opportunities the ecosystem already knows from the inside, with partners who operate.
Manage
Put people, processes and numbers in place before growing. Decisions based on data, not opinion.
Expand
Take what works to new cities and new markets, with the structure behind it.
04 Founder
