TAJÓ
Tapajós Edition • Alter do Chão
Where teams decide what matters.
TAJÓ is a private founder and leadership offsite for scaling technology teams in Brazil.
TAJO is a private founder and leadership offsite for scaling technology teams at critical growth moments. It exists to restore strategic clarity, leadership alignment, and decision-making before complexity turns into friction. This is not a retreat. It is not a workshop. It is a deliberate interruption — a structured reset designed to bring focus, responsibility, and direction back into the center of the team.
Each TAJO edition is built around one team, one context, and one objective: to create the conditions for meaningful decisions. Through a carefully curated environment, disciplined facilitation, and protected time away from operational noise, TAJO enables founders and leadership teams to confront what matters, resolve what is unresolved, and leave with a shared direction that holds under pressure.

TAJÓ helps founder-led technology teams align strategy, leadership and execution in a five-day offsite in Brazil.
Teams typically apply after:
- closing a Seed or Series A/B round
- preparing a major product or market launch
- scaling headcount rapidly
- experiencing growing tension or decision paralysis
- noticing cultural drift or leadership overload

Growth amplifies everything. Including what has not been resolved.
The Tapajós Edition takes place in Alter do Chão, in the Tapajós region of the Amazon.
Alter do Chão is a small riverside town that comes alive on weekends and holidays, when visitors arrive from nearby Santarém. At its heart lies the Ilha do Amor, a postcard-perfect island edged by white sand, just a few steps from the town center.
The Tapajós River is vast, clear, and unusually calm, with turquoise waters that stretch to the horizon. It shapes everyday life in Alter do Chão, setting the rhythm for fishing, swimming, and the slow, expansive pace that defines the region.
