Investments in businesses and people
since 2015
01 The ecosystem
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 methodology: step in where there is an operation to organize, and stay as long as it needs applied intelligence.
02 Where we operate
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.
Corporate governance, restructuring, controllership and operational efficiency.
Software, data and artificial intelligence applied to business.
Real estate assets, leasing and asset management.
Journalism, digital audience and content distribution.
Brand positioning, performance, content and customer acquisition.
Knowledge, training and leadership development.
Health, well-being and longevity.
Food service, experience and food and beverage operations.
Flexible corporate spaces, community and shared services.
Ecotourism and nature experiences.
03 How we operate
Start businesses from opportunities the ecosystem already knows from the inside, with partners who operate.
Put people, processes and numbers in place before growing. Decisions based on data, not opinion.
Take what works to new cities and new markets, with the structure behind it.

For those with an idea or a company
An idea that needs capital. A company ready to grow. An operation that bills but keeps nothing. That is where hc.co comes in: a partner who operates, management by the numbers and the structure to expand.
