CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, operates the world's largest particle physics laboratory, serving as one of the most respected centres for scientific research globally. Home to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), CERN brings together scientists, engineers, and technicians from about 100 different nationalities to study the fundamental particles that make up our universe. This extraordinary international collaboration represents a genuine collaboration between countries, universities, and scientists, driven not by profit margins but by the pursuit of understanding the universe's deepest secrets. Beyond physics research, CERN has revolutionized how humanity shares information. In March 1989, Tim Berners-Lee wrote a proposal at CERN for what would become the World Wide Web, and on April 30, 1993, CERN placed this transformative technology in the public domain. The web has since connected billions of people worldwide and reshaped virtually every aspect of modern life. CERN continues to push technological boundaries, developing sophisticated computing infrastructure to handle the vast amounts of data generated by LHC experiments and driving innovations that benefit society far beyond particle physics.

In 2009, beqom's founders identified a critical gap in the market: there was no comprehensive solution for total compensation management. Traditional compensation tools were built for in-office, siloed operations and failed to meet the complex needs of global enterprises navigating multiple jurisdictions, currencies, and compliance requirements. So they built beqom - a unified platform designed to handle every aspect of compensation and performance. From that initial insight, beqom has evolved into a high-growth B2B SaaS powerhouse powered by Intentional AI. Today, the company serves over 5 million employees across more than 40 S&P 500 companies, including global giants like PUMA, Allianz, Total Energies, and Mercedes-Benz. The platform enables HR and business leaders to navigate complex global compliance landscapes, make data-driven pay decisions, and build equitable, transparent compensation strategies that attract and retain top talent.

In 2011, a group of young entrepreneurs in São Paulo noticed a gap in how people accessed food from their favorite restaurants. They started with a project called Disk Cook, handing out flyers at colleges to promote local restaurants. This simple idea would evolve into iFood, now Latin America's leading food delivery platform. What began as a way to connect hungry customers with restaurants has grown into a comprehensive technology ecosystem that processes over 100 million orders monthly across 1,500 Brazilian cities. Today, iFood is far more than just food delivery. The company has expanded into markets, pharmacies, pet products, fintech (including iFood Pago, a restaurant bank), and corporate benefits. With an artificial intelligence-powered platform supporting 400,000 couriers and 400,000 partner establishments, iFood has transformed from a delivery app into a convenience ecosystem. The company's purpose extends beyond business - iFood is committed to feeding the future of Brazil and the world through technology, education, and positive social and environmental impact, making it a true Brazilian tech unicorn serving millions daily.
