MBA Brasil awards six US$ 10,000 scholarships for international studies

MBA Brasil has announced the first recipients of its Scholarship Program, awarding US$ 10,000 each to six Brazilian students to support their MBA studies at prestigious international institutions. The announcement took place during the MBA Brasil 2026 Conference held at the Kellogg School of Management in Chicago.

The selected scholars are enrolled in five major American institutions: Chicago Booth, Duke Fuqua School of Business, Harvard Business School, MIT Sloan School of Management, and Stanford Graduate School of Business. The selection process focused on leadership potential, professional track records, and a commitment to Brazil's development.

While the program initially planned for five scholarships funded by the non-profit organization, a sixth scholarship was made possible through donations from counselors, former directors, and past conference participants. Moving forward, MBA Brasil intends to expand the program by accepting contributions from both individuals and corporations.
