The support from the Paraíba plant was in the reformulation of the visual identity, providing greater visibility to the work done by the artisans. Neoenergia’s initiative produced various promotional materials with the new logo, including banners, business cards, and letterhead, as well as a entrepreneurship course that will be held in 2021.
Professional qualification of residents is another socioeconomic commitment in which Neoenergia stands out. In January 2020, vocational courses were conducted for civil construction activities such as masonry, carpentry, assembly, and basic electricity, in partnership with SENAI, to train the local workforce, focusing on future hiring for the project.
