What FGV EAESP Pesquisa e Publicações does

FGV EAESP (Escola de Administração de Empresas de São Paulo da Fundação Getulio Vargas) is a Brazilian nonprofit business school founded in 1954, headquartered in São Paulo and operating as part of the larger Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV) private foundation. The institution delivers degree programs across undergraduate (Graduação: Business Administration and Public Administration), MBA, Master's (Mestrado), and Doctoral (Doutorado) levels, alongside executive education, with curriculum spanning business administration, public policy, accounting, finance, analytics, sustainability, health management, and corporate innovation. It is the only Brazilian business school holding Triple Crown accreditation (AACSB, AMBA, EQUIS) and the Nota Máxima from the Brazilian Ministry of Education, placing it among the top tier globally.

The underlying operational platform combines seven academic departments with multiple research centers (FGVanalytics, FGVcemif, FGVcia, FGVin, CIPE, FGVceapg, Centro de Novo Desenvolvimentismo) that produce peer-reviewed research, policy reports, and knowledge dissemination through blogs, podcasts, and journals. The commercial engine is built on four revenue streams: degree tuition (recurring subscription), executive education, corporate training partnerships (Convênios e Parcerias Corporativas), and research grants (including FAPESP postdoctoral fellowships). Distribution operates through a centralized admissions office, corporate partnerships, international alliances with CEMS, PIM, and GNAM networks spanning 130+ institutions across 45 countries, and a Graduway-powered alumni app connecting 43,000–44,000+ members.

The go-to-market is hybrid: a sales-led formal admissions process (vestibular, ENEM, international exams) for degree candidates, complemented by a community-led model in which the alumni network and entrepreneurial ecosystem (FGV Ventures, Garagem de Startups, GV Angels, Liga de Empreendedorismo with R$60 million deployed across 80+ startups) drive both recruitment and lifelong engagement. Customer segments include undergraduate students, working professionals and executives, academic researchers, corporate and public-sector professionals, and aspiring entrepreneurs — a diversified base that limits concentration risk but whose actual revenue figures are not publicly disclosed.
