IBM CSC Brazil 17, Fortaleza: 1st day at the client's location

Finally, the first day at the client's location. Very impressive how IFCE (The Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Ceará) works. IFCE is public academic institution but it's not just the school or university. It is a educational and social institution offering a variety of bachelor’s and master’s degree programs. In the Students spend the all day at the institute, attending the lessons, there are lots of sport activities including inside and outside pool, there is also food for them and social activities as well as arts (theater, painting). Everything is for free!

First day of work we met also all the clients and all the sub-teams, we introduced each others and our scope of work. Me and my team mate Christine are going to develop a Business incubator outside of the Fortaleza city which will be a kind of educational model of Business incubator already implemented in Fortaleza.

Business lunch with our hosts

Connection at the hotel is very limited (at the client's location it is really fast) and we were really busy by activities organized by our PIXERA friends. Therefore let me share with you the weekend highlights now
On Saturday we were at th famous beach, Praia do Futuro. It was a nice team building as most of the team arrived just on Saturday night. Water was so inviting... :)
