NAVA

What NAVA does

NAVA is a privately held Brazilian technology consultancy headquartered in Barueri (São Paulo) with approximately three decades of operating history and around 2,000 technology specialists. The company was founded in 1996/1997 as an IT services firm and pivoted in 2020 from data-center-centric services toward AI, cybersecurity, observability, and automation. NAVA organizes its offering around nine service verticals — Digital Strategy & Agile Development, Data, AI, Cloud, Cybersecurity, Infrastructure Technology Solutions, Intelligent Outsourcing, Observability, and Creative Innovation — sold to large Brazilian enterprises across financial services, banking, insurance, payments, telecom, energy, healthcare, retail, and food & beverage.

The technology backbone combines proprietary IP with deep multi-vendor integration. NAVA Sphere, a GenAI platform launched at FEBRABAN TECH 2025, uses predefined prompts to analyze code, surface vulnerabilities, and review legacy migration processes. Proprietary monitoring products include NAVA IM (infrastructure), ALMA BAM (business activity), DEM (digital experience), and Alma Integrated View, which centralizes events from Dynatrace, Grafana, and Zabbix into ServiceNow ITSM. A 24/7 SOC analyzes over 12,000 alerts per month, and the Command Center bundle is sold as a managed observability offering. Strategic alliances with AWS, IBM, Twilio, and technology integrations with Power BI and HoloLens 2 support solution delivery rather than product licensing.

NAVA makes money as a B2B professional services and consulting firm on multi-year, quote-based contracts, with revenue banded around $50M-$100M based on the 2,000-strong specialist base and the publicly stated R$1 billion revenue-by-2030 target. In September 2024 Crescera Capital acquired a minority stake, funding an aggressive M&A push that delivered three acquisitions in under a year: GH Brandtech (creative innovation, November 2025), Ventura ERM (cybersecurity, January 2026), and CS Global IT (multicloud, June 2026). Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting C-level and VP buyers, complemented by AWS, IBM, and Twilio co-sell channels. Notable clients include Itaú, Bradesco, Santander, Banco Inter, Banco BV, Banco BMG, Safra, Cetelem, CPFL Energia, Liberty Seguros, Tokio Marine, Localiza, Casas Bahia, Assaí, Femsa, Dasa, and Sem Parar, with a January 2026 three-year contract from the U.S. SEC marking its first major U.S. federal engagement.
