Best Workplaces for Innovators

A publicação norte-americana Fast Company apresenta o ranking Best Workplaces for Innovators 2020, que pretende identificar as empresas cujas culturas capacitam os funcionários, em todos os níveis, a melhorar processos, a criar novos produtos ou a desenvolver novas maneiras de fazer negócios.

Entre as companhias que integram a lista está a agência AKQA, destacada por conta do projeto "Código de Consciência", um software de código aberto criado pela AKQA Casa em São Paulo, em parceria com o time de tecnologia do escritório de Melbourne (Austrália).

A iniciativa tem como objetivo reduzir a extração ilegal de madeira da floresta amazônica, usando a geolocalização e um mapa oficial das áreas ambientais protegidas em todo o mundo, para interromper, nas regiões preservadas, o funcionamento de máquinas - sejam tratores ou motosserras para derrubar árvores, motobombas ou escavadeiras hidráulicas para o garimpo ou caminhões que transportam a madeira nobre e o ouro extraídos ilegalmente.

Em dezembro, Hugo Veiga e Diego Machado, fundadores da AKQA Casa, assumiram as posições de Global Chief Creative Officers (CCOs), quando passaram a liderar globalmente toda área de criação da rede juntamente com Peter Lund, do escritório da agência em Copenhagen.

"A AKQA Casa nasceu para ser o laboratório criativo experimental da network, cujo modelo do negócio é focado na ideia, independente do formato. Deu tão certo que iremos exportar esse mindset criativo e importar as expertises complementares à criação dos outros escritórios para o mercado brasileiro", comenta Machado.

Renato Zandoná continua liderando a criação no Brasil, agora no cargo de diretor executivo de criação.
