• FGV EAESP (Fundação Getúlio Vargas): Brazil's most established business school offering extensive executive education across multiple sectors including logistics and supply chain management. Comparable to ITL because it competes for the same Brazilian executive education audience with broader portfolio and stronger brand recognition, though not specialized in transport.
