Through the
Nuclei are growing new entrepreneurial leaders. Therefore I see now our
chamber stronger and with a renewed leadership.
Joaquim Bortoti
President ACE Assis Chateaubriand |
Even my
workers started to change because they are not any more ashamed to say:
“I am a Carpenter !"
Dalmir Tomazelli
Carpentry Don Mária |
The “Project
Entrepreneur” represents the end of our organisation‘s image as pure
lobby institution. It is the start of the idea to change the chamber
into a centre of enterprise development
Idalino Megott
President ACEA Francisco Beltrão, PR |
We
elaborated a questionnaire for the Nucleus members in order to carry out
evaluations in the enterprises. 26 automobile workshops started
improvements
Elvis Ludwig
Automobile Workshop Prevencar |
We always knew how to lobby, but there was a gap –
service. The “Project Entrepreneur” helps us to provide the members with
real and practical services, which support the sectors in technology and
organisation
Júlio Lattmann
President ACE Pato Branco, PR |
Through the Nucleus I learnt
to know the market better and now I am with more confidence to invest
Sebastião
Stahelin
Hairdresser Tião
expanded significantly his enterprise |
Through the professionalization of the chamber,
the employment of qualified counsellors, we are able to supply our
members with more and better services
Augusto S.
Sperotto
President ACE Toledo |
I do not know where I would be ... But I restarted my
enterprise in a more organised form

difficulties with his staff |
The counsellor should not feel frustrated when things
seem to stop. Never make a comparison between two meetings only, but
compare at least one year. The changes come with time ….
President ACI Xanxerê,
SC |
The members of the Nucleus
started even to involve themselves in social and community activities
Sebastião Stahelin
Tião Hairdresser
started a campaign to produce wigs for persons
who
passed through chemotherapy |
The Nucleus – that is our school for future leaders
of our chamber
Roberto Breithaupt
President of the federation
of ACEs of Santa Catarina |
I worked and worked and worked … but it did not give
in return the feeling that I was entrepreneur
Juvenal Micheluzzi
Restaurant Mime |
The traditional formula for chambers is outdated.
If it does not supply the members with products and services, the
organisation will not continue to exist. The “Project Entrepreneur”
conveys the direction and a new vision
Gilmar P. Tomasson
President ACE Dois Vizinhos |
I did not believe much in training, however, the
participation in the Nucleus provoked my interest in training courses,
speeches, trade fares, etc. Today, when I know about an event and I
cannot participate, I feel disturbed
Nivaldo
Rupp
Carpentry NR |
I did not
know that the SMEs need and want us
Martins Fidelis
CEO of the ACE Joinville / SC |
Alone I would
have never dared to enter into the Technical Training Centre!

The Nucleus is an optimal tool for us to provide real
services to our members. Our membership
already increased by 10%
Jorge Osmarine
President ACI Mal. Cândido Rondon |
The exchange of information between us facilitated
our preparation for changes in the companies which were necessary and
overdue
Juvenal Micheluzzi
Restaurant Mime |
With the
Nuclei the Association turns into an organisation with talented persons
what eases the decision taking for us
Valter Orsi
President ACE Londrina / PR |
All this work led to a a more trustful relationship
between me and my clients
Dalmir Tomazelli
Carpentry Don Maria |
For us the
“Programme Entrepreneur” fell from heaven. A gift. Up to now our
membership increased by 30%, and look, at present we run only four
Nuclei
Idalino Megott
President ACEA Francisco Beltrão / PR |
We took our workers to Sao Paulo in order to visit
trade fares and other companies sharing ideas, visions …
Dário Bergemann

What makes
the difference in a project or institution, are the persons
Ilgo Welp (†)
CEO ACE Mafra / SC |
The Nucleus served as injection of motivation –
before I was only thinking in to continue working
Nivaldo
Rupp

This Nucleus work, this is really a great gift!!

We participate in the elaboration of technical norms which in future
will be available for the whole sector
Elvis Ludwig

participates in a workgroup of a national
institution for the definition of norms |

I ask for
information in my Nucleus in order to use the opportunities – this is a
real wonder! – My father was owner of a workshop for long time and I
never saw him talking with someone about his work
Neilor Buhl

I learned
through my Nucleus of Light Engineering that I am not only a producer of
machines but also an entrepreneur!
