Flavio Villanustre, VP Technology & CISO, speaks with Claudio Amaral, Sr Director Software Engineering, and Hugo Watanuki, Sr Software Engineer, all with LexisNexis Risk Solutions Group. Claudio and Hugo work closely with our colleagues in the Alphaville, Brazil office. In this episode, they discuss how HPCC Systems got involved with academia in Brazil and the impact it has made to the wider international community. It all started in 2015 when Claudio delivered a talk as part of an academic event at Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC), Brazil. This was the spark that ignited HPCC Systems interest in Brazil which led to more participation and speaking opportunities in local events. Visibility was growing strong and in a matter of time, Claudio and his team formed our first HPCC Systems community in Brazil.

Leading up to when Hugo joined in 2019, the need for universities in Brazil to establish academic partnerships with data science experts was in high demand. Having ties with academia himself, this was perfect timing for Hugo to take the reigns of what Claudio started and expand further outreach. Hugo, alongside fellow colleague, Artur Baruchi, set out to engage with universities who were looking for three different areas of collaboration: 1) Teaching students big data analytical skills, 2) engaging in research projects, and 3) helping industry professionals obtain data science skills – all leveraging HPCC Systems.

Today, our Brazil community is one of the fastest growing among our international userbase. In 2020 alone, and with the onset of the pandemic, the team was able to reach nearly 50 cities across four different countries in South America. The team stays busy with facilitating a number of workshops, translating all the materials needed for documentation, website pages and training lessons into Portuguese. Relationships have continued to flourish with Federal University of Santa Catarina and new ones began with University of São Paulo. Interns from these academic partnerships are heavily involved in the community and have made contributions that support our HPCC Systems cloud native platform.

Watch the full episode to hear more from Claudio and Hugo on our thriving success with the HPCC Systems Community in Brazil. Feliz 10º aniversário HPCC Systems!
