More than a strong trend, process digitalization will be necessary for entrepreneurship in Brazil in 2025. The adoption of digital tools and automation is transforming the market, allowing companies, especially micro and small ones, to reduce operational costs and increase their efficiency.
According to a study by McKinsey & Company, the implementation of automated processes can reduce administrative expenses by up to 20%. Furthermore, Sebrae research indicates that companies that invest in learning can improve their operational efficiency by up to 80%. These advances align with World Bank data, which indicate that automation is a critical factor for the sustainable growth of emerging economies, such as Brazil.
Rafael Caribé, partner atStreamline Accounting, reinforces the gains involved in this movement: “Digitalization has a direct impact on the survival and growth of small businesses. For those facing competitive margins, any gain in productivity is essential. Tools such as generative artificial intelligence from the preparation of proposals to the use of chatbots in customer service, bringing agility and efficiency”, says the businessman.
POSITIVE RESULTS, IN PRACTICE
Practical examples already show how digital transformation is essential for small businesses in Brazil. A report from Sebrae highlights that initiatives using financial automation systems reduce administrative task time by up to 30%, freeing up energy and resources to focus on growth strategies.
In the Brazilian context, the simplification of bureaucratic processes, such as business registration, is also a decisive factor. "The average time for business registration, which used to take over a month, can now be limited to a few hours thanks to digitalization. This agility not only benefits entrepreneurs but also positions Brazil as a more competitive market in a global scenario," recalls Caribé.
According to the businessman, by 2025, digitalization presents itself as an opportunity and a necessity. "Entrepreneurs who embrace digital transformation are more likely to thrive in a dynamic and trained business environment, leveraging technological advances to reach new levels of success," he concludes.
