Salto Inclusão Produtiva

What Salto Inclusão Produtiva does

Salto Inclusão Produtiva is a Florianópolis-based Brazilian social accelerator founded in 2017 and operated as a subsidiary of Companhia de Impacto. It designs and executes programs that channel corporate social investment, foundation grants, government tenders, and Brazilian incentive-law funding (including Rouanet cultural law and recycling incentives) into territorial development outcomes — specifically income generation, formal employment creation, and SMB formalization for under-served entrepreneurs. The company serves three primary segments: corporations/institutes/foundations seeking measurable social ROI, government and Sistema S entities needing implementation partners for economic-development policy, and individual entrepreneurs seeking support from formalization through to first B2B sale.

The core product combines four delivery components: individual mentorship drawn from a national mentor community, the CAS (Central de Atendimento ao Salto) ongoing support center, the Salto+ WhatsApp-based community of 471 active entrepreneurs, and certified applied activities covering cash flow, financial management, and pricing. The technology stack is intentionally lean — WhatsApp groups serve as the primary community and engagement layer — with no proprietary software product or app. Distribution is B2B2C: institutional partners fund programs, entrepreneurs are recruited through email enrollment and partner referrals, and ongoing engagement is delivered via WhatsApp.

Revenue is generated through professional-services contracts (CSR-funded programs, government tenders, Sistema S partnerships) and licensing/royalty mechanisms tied to incentive laws. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and participants do not pay direct fees. Nine-year cumulative impact metrics — 11,000 entrepreneurs impacted, 1,042 formal jobs generated, 3,000 new clients acquired by entrepreneurs, NPS 90, and an average R$ 3,500 monthly revenue uplift per entrepreneur — serve as the primary proof points used to win and renew institutional contracts.
