Government Digital Infrastructure (SERPRO)
Geography: Americas · South America · Brazil
SERPRO (Serviço Federal de Processamento de Dados) is a state-owned IT company that runs Brazil's federal digital infrastructure. It processes 33 billion transactions per year, manages over 30.4 petabytes of data, and operates 750+ digital solutions for government agencies.
The organization handles tax collection (Receita Federal), vehicle registration (RENAVAM), customs (Siscomex), and dozens of other critical government systems. It recently partnered with the Cardano Foundation to explore blockchain for public sector transparency.
SERPRO represents a deliberate choice: Brazil built and operates its own government IT infrastructure rather than outsourcing to US cloud providers. This gives the government data sovereignty and the ability to integrate systems across agencies — the backbone that makes Gov.br, Pix integration with public services, and digital tax collection possible.
