On the morning of the last day of the event (the 10th), the main stage of the 79th Soea welcomed the CEO of Blockbr, a tokenization and digital asset company, Cassio José Krupinsk. The financial market specialist presented how tokens (an electronic representation of a real asset that has been gaining ground in the financial system) can be used in the Engineering, Agronomy and Geosciences markets, helping to expand job opportunities for professionals in these areas. In the field of civil engineering, the speaker mentioned how tokenization contributes to investments in the real estate sector. “If I want to build on a plot, I don’t need to buy it, I can divide it into fractions and tokenize them so that other people can buy these fractions and I can use my capital to build the property I want,” he said. If in construction there are many possibilities for tokenization, when we talk about agribusiness, the possibilities go further, since, in addition to crops, all agribusiness products can be converted into digital assets. “Blockbr has already tokenized cattle, which went from the slaughterhouse to the supermarket, and we were able to anticipate all receivables. I think we were 100% successful, with a return for investors of 0.6% more than they would have had in the traditional financial market,” he said.

With regard to sustainability, Krupinski explained that Blockbr saw the pain in the market and created Okcygenio, a project that “tokenizes” carbon credits. “We’re hiring engineers to do the project, we tokenize the carbon credit and with this tokenization we sell the credits in advance, for those entrepreneurs who can’t wait for the usual deadline,” he explained. Cássio stressed Brazil’s potential in this area, since the McKinsey Institute has announced that Brazil could lead the carbon market with US$ 50 billion by 2030. Krupinsk ended the talk by inviting the participating professionals to collaborate by sending projects, via an e-mail address, that they understand can be tokenized, in exchange for a 5% share in the carbon credits generated. “We need your technical knowledge to use in a win-win relationship. You are the generators of opportunities,” he encouraged. Click here to access the website and submit your project.
