Mercafro: plataforma de suporte ao desenvolvimento da intelectualidade negra

Abstract

The study presents a critical conceptual analysis about the comprehension of business platforms on the role of black Brazilian intellectuals in their educational training processes. It addresses the way through which the Brazilian State and business organizations have formulated, created and implemented legal instruments for training in entrepreneurial platforms in Brazil. In order to carry out the analysis of strategies utilized by the group involved, the work develop a qualitative approach, exploratory research whose application aims at elaborating or comprehending a research instrument suitable for a specific reality. Such framework seeks to delimit a set of relationships that the entrepreneurial process has been producing and distributing, through existing knowledge on online training platforms (Sebrae SEI and Endeavor). The following data collection techniques were utilized: a bibliographic review and document analysis, in addition to a nonparticipatory observation with national business platforms and events produced for the black entrepreneurial ecosystem in traditional online and offline spaces. Over the centuries, the black population has produced significant changes on its own through the mobilization of the knowledge of its members and entrepreneurial references of black women and men. However, black administrative and economic thinking is not present, whether in articles, interviews and events that legitimize the so-called considered authorities. Such knowledge is absent, whether in the ecosystem or platforms for the production of data and studies that remain incomplete and superficial and do not bring positive and successful black production. The study found that few platforms and actions communicate the value of black entrepreneurship and its importance to this ecosystem.
