Nuvini Hosts Inaugural NuviniAI Day: Culmination of Strategic AI Initiative at Oracle São Paulo

~ Three Finalist Projects to Compete in Pioneering Corporate AI Program Demonstrating Tangible ROI and Innovation ~

NEW YORK, July 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nuvini Group Limited (Nasdaq: NVNI) (“Nuvini” or the “Company”), a leading technology conglomerate in the Latin American SaaS sector, is pleased to announce the successful debut of its inaugural NuviniAI Day, held on July 17, 2025, at Oracle’s headquarters in São Paulo. This landmark event celebrates the culmination of the NuviniAI program—a strategic, company-wide initiative designed to accelerate artificial intelligence (“AI”) adoption, drive digital transformation, and position Nuvini at the forefront of enterprise-grade artificial intelligence integration.

Program Overview: A Strategic Leap Toward AI Leadership

Launched in June 2025, the NuviniAI program attracted ten (10) AI project submissions from across the Nuvini ecosystem. With an average return on investment of 523% and a payback period of just 4.2 months, the initiative has delivered tangible business results that validate AI as a strategic lever for growth. The program’s success reflects Nuvini’s broader vision of embedding innovation, scalability, and operational efficiency into its core operations through technology.

“The NuviniAI program exemplifies our belief that AI is not just a tech upgrade—it’s a business imperative,” said Pierre Schurmann, Chief Executive Officer at Nuvini. “The results we’ve achieved so far prove that measurable, scalable AI impact is possible with clear vision and strong execution.”

Finalist Projects: AI in Action

After initial presentations on June 18th, and final selection on June 24th, three standout projects advanced to the final phase with hands-on Oracle support. These projects received infrastructure, AI tools, and technical mentorship, preparing for live demos at NuviniAI Day.

AIMÊ - Intelligent Public Tender Analysis (Effecti)

AIMÊ revolutionizes the public tender analysis process through advanced generative AI, natural language processing, and optical character recognition technologies. The solution has already processed over 2,050 public tenders since March 2025, achieving 75% response accuracy while dramatically increasing productivity, with an estimated return on investment (“ROI”) of 1400%, more than 75% user base activation and a payback period of just 6 months.

Business Scout - Automated Acquisition Intelligence (Datahub)

Business Scout transforms mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”) opportunity identification through automated web scraping and intelligent analysis powered by GPT technology. The platform has an extensive database of over 3 million companies in Brazil and promises to have its pay back within 6 months while enabling faster, more accurate strategic decisions in the M&A process.

LeadIA - AI Marketing Assistant and Executor (Leadlovers)

LeadIA addresses the critical challenge of marketing execution by providing an intelligent AI agent that assists users in implementing practical marketing actions. Leveraging OpenAI, TypeBot, and N8N technologies, LeadIA serves over 10,000 active accounts. The solution is expected to demonstrate a remarkable 35% increase in user activation and 20% reduction in first-month churn, with a payback period of only 3 months.

The event will bring together technology leaders, industry experts, and Nuvini executives to witness the culmination of this groundbreaking initiative. The winning project will receive additional support for enterprise-wide implementation and serve as a model for future AI initiatives across the organization.

“NuviniAI Day represents more than a competition—it’s a celebration of innovation and a demonstration of our commitment to technological leadership,” emphasized Mr. Schurmann. “The solutions being presented have the potential to transform not just our operations, but to set new standards for AI implementation in the Brazilian SaaS sector.”

The Oracle São Paulo office served as the venue for the final presentations on July 17th, where each project team had the opportunity to demonstrate their enhanced solutions to a panel of expert evaluators, including Nuvini’s C-level executives, board members and Oracle personnel. The selection criteria focused on technical innovation, business impact, scalability potential, and alignment with Nuvini’s strategic objectives.

Industry Context and Market Leadership 

The NuviniAI program launches at a critical juncture in the Brazilian technology landscape, where artificial intelligence adoption has become a strategic imperative rather than a competitive advantage. 

The SaaS sector, where Nuvini maintains a strong presence, is experiencing unprecedented transformation driven by AI integration. Companies are investing substantial amounts in SaaS products, with AI integration identified as the primary trend shaping the industry in 2025.

“We’re witnessing a fundamental shift where AI adoption is no longer about innovation—it’s about survival,” explained Schurmann. “Companies that fail to integrate AI capabilities risk being left behind as the pace of digital transformation accelerates globally.”

The NuviniAI program positions Nuvini ahead of this curve, demonstrating measurable results that include productivity increases and financial growth improvements, consistent with global benchmarks for successful AI implementation.

Looking Forward: Scaling the Future of AI at Nuvini

The success of the NuviniAI program establishes a foundation for continued innovation and technological leadership within Nuvini. The initiative demonstrates the organization’s ability to identify, develop, and implement cutting-edge AI solutions that deliver tangible business value while positioning the company for future growth opportunities.

The program’s emphasis on measurable results, strategic alignment, and scalable implementation provides a replicable framework for future technology initiatives. The lessons learned and best practices developed through the NuviniAI program will inform the group’s ongoing digital transformation efforts and contribute to its competitive positioning in the global technology market.

“The NuviniAI program represents just the beginning of our AI journey,” concluded program leadership. “The foundation we’re building today will enable us to continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in business technology, always with a focus on delivering real value to our customers and stakeholders.”

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements about future expectations, plans and prospects, as well as any other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts, may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. The Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including, without limitation: the Company’s ability to complete the potential acquisitions on the anticipated timeline or at all; general market conditions that could affect the consummation of the potential acquisition; if definitive documents with respect to a potential acquisition are executed, whether the parties will achieve any of the anticipated benefits of any such transactions; and other factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Ǫuarterly and Annual Reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the risks described in other filings that the Company may make with the SEC. Factors or events that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. We caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these forward‐looking statements.
