addressed topics such as career
and market challenges, ESG
investments, democracy, and
the electoral political system,
among others.
With the purpose of aligning the
Board's agenda to issues that
are strategic to the family, the
highlight in 2021 was the Raízes
(Roots) project. Led by the
fifth generation, it focused on
reviewing the history of women
in the family and reflecting on
their roles in society over the
years. The initiative included
interviews, social analyses and
surveys, consultations with
experts, and workshops.
Social engagement is one of the
Board's priorities and is part of
the family's education model.
The social activities gained scale
in 2021 thanks to a partnership
with the Votorantim Institute.
Inspired by the Família Engaja
(Engaged Family) campaign,
the initiatives, held in São
Paulo, had two main focuses:
food donation and, in winter,
collection and distribution
of essential items for people
in situations of financial
vulnerability. In addition, the
Board hosted another Família
Inspira Família (Family Inspires
Family) meeting, in which family
members shared their personal
endeavors, social perspectives,
and challenges.
The Social Committee was
created three years ago
to strengthen the family's
historical relationship with
three institutions: BP - A
Beneficiência Portuguesa de
São Paulo, A.C. Camargo Cancer
Center, and Associação de
Assistência à Criança Deficiente
(AACD). The committee
focused on directly supporting
structuring projects to leave a
legacy to society.
At the end of the year, the
Family Board concluded the
preparations for the leadership
transition that will take place in
2022 when, for the first time
in the governance process,
two fifth-generation members
will occupy the positions of
chairman and deputy chairman.
This transition process has
been in preparation for over a
year and involved assessments,

VOTORANTIM
Created in 2003 as part of the celebration of Votorantim's 85th anniversary, the
purpose of Memória Votorantim is to map, record, and preserve documents and
promote knowledge about the holding company's history. In its almost 20 years
of operation, the role of Memória has evolved and it is currently responsible for
maintaining the historical record and for producing content based on Votorantim's
past and present and the histories of the portfolio companies, their entrepreneurs,
and employees. Its historical collection and responsibility for analyzing and
managing knowledge are divided into three main areas:
► Reputation
▸ Organizational culture
► Sense of legacy
These areas complement each other and enable the development of projects,
products, and in-depth research on the holding company's trajectory.
The collection of Memória Votorantim is open to all employees and the public by
appointment. Part of its collection of more than 600,000 items-which includes
photographs, documents, objects, audio, and films-has been digitalized and can be
accessed online.
