USP: Highlighting Talent Recognition

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Gaddafi built the world’s largest artificial river under the Sahara — it’s 4,000 km of giant pipes that pump 40,000-year-old fossil water to entire cities in Libya.

A German architect built a cylindrical house in 1994 that rotates to follow the sun throughout the day, generates 5 times more energy than it consumes, and was the world’s first energy-positive house.

Two African countries will inaugurate in 4 days an 825-meter bridge suspended 90 meters high over a reservoir — it is the largest of three bridges of a megaproject that will supply millions of people.

A company that drilled for oil has drilled 4.8 kilometers of rock in Utah and found a never-ending heat of 290 degrees — now it is building the world’s first next-generation commercial geothermal power plant, with 100 MW connected to the grid in June 2026.

China has just successfully tested the world’s first ground effect maritime vehicle, a craft that flies up to 6 meters above the water at 200 km/h, uses quantum technology and 6G communication, and can rescue patients in the middle of the ocean.

After algal blooms wiped out almost 75% of the submerged vegetation, Florida plants 23 acres of seagrass, breaches dikes, and tries to make a historic lagoon filter water again and contain floods.

Archaeologists enter a cave in Israel preserved for about 100,000 years and find burials so ancient and organized that the site could be among the oldest cemeteries ever identified in the world.

Rio Grande do Sul invests R$ 14 billion after 2024 floods and bets on climate prevention and infrastructure.

How much does a cashier earn at Assaí and Grupo Mateus in 2026? Updated salaries, regional differences, and a package with assistance, cafeteria, and career plan rekindle comparison between chains.

Another Chinese giant invades the Brazilian market: Baic arrives with a 409-horsepower electric all-wheel-drive SUV, a compact rival to the BYD Dolphin, a pickup, and plans for its own factory in Brazil to compete in every segment.
