Recent research indicates that in our country the rate of promising athletes aged 10 to 20 years who give up on the dream of becoming a professional, can reach up to 96%. The 3 main reasons: lack of investments or structure; lack of support from parents or guardians; lack of opportunity to be seen, found, discovered! Resolving reasons 1 and 2 does not depend exclusively on the private sector. Especially in our country ... unfortunately. But, we discovered how to solve the pain that athletes suffer from the lack of opportunity to be discovered. Then, BeTheNext appears. Furthermore, with our technology, we solve other evident problems in the sports market - FOR ATHLETES: Presenting or being discovered by clubs, sports entrepreneurs or sponsors, it is a difficult, selective and political process. - FOR CLUBS: There is no efficient and economical way to mine and discover talent on a large scale. - FOR THE MARKET: The great rejection or abandonment of promising talents, directly unbalances the technical quality of teams and sports competition as a whole. - FOR SOCIETY: Discover athletes, regardless of age, sex, race, social class and specific sports skills, whether they are in large urban centers or in small and distant places. directly unbalances the technical quality of teams and sports competition as a whole. - FOR SOCIETY: Discover athletes, regardless of age, sex, race, social class and specific sports skills, whether they are in large urban centers or in small and distant places. directly unbalances the technical quality of teams and sports competition as a whole. - FOR SOCIETY: Discover athletes, regardless of age, sex, race, social class and specific sports skills, whether they are in large urban centers or in small and distant places.

BeTheNext believes that every athlete can YES become a professional. We also believe that every club and sports entrepreneur, of any modality or category, is in constant search for promising talents. Thus, BeTheNext emerges as an innovative methodology in the sports business segment, so that any and all athletes can "show themselves" to clubs, entrepreneurs and sponsors, as a way to fill a gap that exists in this market, and that makes thousands of promising athletes give up the dream of becoming a professional.

According to a recent study by Rock Content *, the second generation of social networks symbolizes an evolution of how they are idealized. And to maintain relevance in the face of generation Z, what a network needs to be launched or to stay current in the coming years are: - mobile as the main device, as internet consumption must be within reach and currently this is the way more widespread, with 96% penetration. - video as the main format, essential to keep the new generation entertained. - technology as a great differential: augmented reality, virtual reality, video editing and other updates. - short and shareable content that allows the user to share their experiences and stories. - be prepared to grow with your target and avoid the image of a network that was in the past. Another interesting information refers to the visits made by the BeTheNext team in the clubs to present the project. In this 1 year of operation, our team spoke to more than 3,000 people, including athletes, coaches and managers. These visits are made minutes before training starts and we identified that at this time, the athletes were gathered in groups using their smartphone. Therefore, we prioritize mobile technology to serve the new generation of customers / consumers. ___ * https: //rockcontent.com/blog/ These visits are made minutes before training starts and we identified that at this time, the athletes were gathered in groups using their smartphone. Therefore, we prioritize mobile technology to serve the new generation of customers / consumers. ___ * https: //rockcontent.com/blog/ These visits are made minutes before training starts and we identified that at this time, the athletes were gathered in groups using their smartphone. Therefore, we prioritize mobile technology to serve the new generation of customers / consumers. ___ * https: //rockcontent.com/blog/

BeTheNext believes that each and every athlete should have the same opportunity to be discovered in the world of sports. We developed a technology that gives visibility to those “unknown” athletes, but also, we increased the exposure of “professional” athletes to clubs and other agents. Our team understands that nowadays, access to technology is, in addition to a necessity, a democratic, quick and efficient way to publicize the potential of these who will be the next talents of the sport (be the next!) Many of these future idols of the sport are minors considering that currently in Brazil 86% of the athletes are from basic categories, that is, between 9 and 17 years old. The BeTheNext App offers control of interactions carried out within the platform, based on the veracity of the data provided not only by athletes, but also by sports clubs, fight academies, universities and other agents. In view of the possible risks that a platform such as ours may offer to children, adolescents and incapacitated minors, athletes who, when informing the date of birth and the system understands that it is a “minor”, are now required to fill out the forms. data of the father, mother or legal guardian. This, in turn, is informed by email that his “son, daughter or minor of his responsibility” has made a free registration on our platform, in search of his dream in the sport. Through our platform we will never encourage minors to make face-to-face, telephone or even e-mail contacts with any individual or institution. We will help our sports community to develop technology that is increasingly efficient in its purpose, but also safe for our athletes. Please report any situation that is suspicious or that puts your children's integrity at risk. But above all, help us to prevent these situations. BeTheNext is synonymous with democratization, diversity, inclusion and opportunity in sport, but above all: safety and reliability to help athletes look for their dreams.

A manifesto is a public statement of principles and intentions that aims to alert a problem. Thus, the BeTheNext Team has the duty to register here its MANIFEST FOR A PROFESSIONAL SPORT IN BRAZIL. Sports-related projects have grown in recent years. According to Rubio (2000), sport is considered one of the greatest social phenomena of modernity and, even though it is a fundamental right constituted by article 217 of the Federal Constitution of 1988, its access is still restricted, elite and not very educational for training. the construction of individuals capable of relating in a city way in the world around them. Because sport, in Brazil, reflects the country's situation in general: it is marked by injustices, inequalities, low investment and now a fearful general setback of the rights guaranteed in 1988. Sports practice contributes to the development of social awareness and also broadens the perception of aspects that directly affect quality of life and that will accompany the person throughout their entire life. trajectory. The vision of a sport as a right in a language that aims to facilitate the educational process and expand the possibilities of attacking professional as it is socio-contextualized, becomes an instrument for the interpretation of reality, through the discussion and reflection of its practice concretized in the direct action of educational actions. Points for our reflection :? - Sport in Brazil is almost synonymous with football. Just look at the sports news on radio, TV and newspapers to realize that, despite the numerous other modalities, these programs almost always address men's soccer. There is almost never room for other sports, let alone for sports ... BeTheNext defends technological democratization in sport for more than 160 sports. - “Virtuose” athletes who appear from time to time in football, such as Pelé, Garrincha, Rivelino, Zico, Sócrates, Romário, Ronaldo, Formiga, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Marta, Kaká and Neymar, give signs that yes… we can be considered the country of football, since we have more than 30 million Brazilians practicing the sport ... But great sports references also appear in other sports. It connects in these names: Maria Esther Bueno, one of the greatest tennis players of all time; Gustavo Kuerten, international tennis idol; Ayrton Senna, Nelson Piquet and Emerson Fittipaldi in motorsport, with eight Formula 1 world titles; César Cielo, swimmer, Olympic champion and three-time 50m world champion; Daniel Dias and Clodoaldo Silva, Paralympic swimmers, together, have 38 Paralympic medals, of which 20 are gold; Terezinha Guilhermina, seven times world champion and three-time Paralympic athletics champion; Daiane dos Santos, gymnast, world champion on the ground; Arthur Zanetti, gymnast, world champion and Olympic rings; Isaquias Queiroz dos Santos, canoeist, three Olympic medals (two silver and one bronze) and three-time world canoe champion… .. among countless others… - But football will be the most successful sport in the country, considering the proportions of investment and number of practitioners? - This way of conceiving sport, reflects the way decisions are made in Brazilian sports management. - As a comparison with other collective modalities, Brazilian men's volleyball is three-time Olympic champion and has nine World League titles. The selection of women's volleyball is even more successful: two-time Olympic champion, not to mention men's and women's basketball, women's handball ... - With so many titles and characters, can we consider that we are a worldwide sports success? Do all these results mean that Brazilian sport is well managed, democratic and accessible? Are we “reaping the rewards” of a national sports system? The data from the “National Sport Diagnosis” show that sport in Brazil is a privilege of part of the population, making it lose its character as a social right. The absence of public policies aimed at democratizing access and sports practice reinforces the exclusivity of sport, which may have an impact on public health. BeTheNext is synonymous with democratization, diversity, inclusion and opportunity in sport!
