What Derechos de autor does

ST Produções Teatrais is a Curitiba-based theatrical production company founded in 2011 by Sandro Tueros, operating in the state of Paraná, Brazil. Since inception the company has mounted 27 productions, delivered more than 1,500 presentations, and reached over 165,000 spectators across 75+ cities, with operations now extending into Santa Catarina. Its core product is live theatrical performance — primarily touring stage shows staged in partnership with public cultural programs and corporate sponsors — and the catalog functions as the company's principal intangible asset.

The company's business model is built on three revenue pillars: (1) public cultural funding obtained through Brazilian editais (competitive government cultural grants), most notably via the PalcoParaná program and equivalent municipal and state mechanisms; (2) corporate sponsorship and co-production agreements with a small set of large Brazilian corporates including Audi, COPEL, Volvo, and Caixa; and (3) institutional contracts with cultural venues and festivals. The pricing model is overwhelmingly free to the public, with the value chain capturing revenue upstream from public and private funders rather than from ticket buyers.

The operation is founder-owned with a small team of 1–10 employees, no external investment, and no disclosed AI/ML or proprietary technology stack beyond a digital distribution initiative ('Flamenco Para Todos') introduced during the pandemic. Geographic focus remains Southern Brazil, and revenue is therefore highly exposed to the funding cycles of Paraná and Santa Catarina cultural agencies and to renewal decisions by a concentrated set of corporate sponsors.
