Space dedicated to employability will bring together companies, organizations, and diversity experts to connect talent and promote inclusion in the workforce.
Generating real job opportunities and strengthening diversity and inclusion policies in the Brazilian market will be the focus of the Employ Arena, one of the main spaces of Reatech 2025 – International Fair of Inclusion, Accessibility and Rehabilitation, which takes place in parallel with the second edition of the Brazilian Paralympic Expo, come in November 6 and 8, at São Paulo Expo. The environment will bring together companies with open positions, HR consultants, educational institutions, and specialized entities, creating a complete ecosystem of guidance and professional direction for people with disabilities. In addition to concrete opportunities for market insertion, the space will promote lectures, mentorships, and connections with experts who work to promote diversity in organizations.
More than a recruitment environment, the Employ Arena it will be a concrete bridge between discourse and practice. “It is not just about opening doors, but about ensuring that people find real pathways for integration, growth, and leadership. The focus of the space is to generate true connections, born from Reatech's commitment to uniting business, social impact, and human experience in the same environment,” she highlights Maurício Macedo, CEO of Fiera Milano Brasil, organizer of the fair.
Virtual Reality and Supported Employment: The leading role of the Instituto Jô Clemente
Among the most innovative spaces in this edition is that of Jô Clemente Institute (IJC), which will present to the public its Virtual Reality Project, developed in partnership with Alstom Foundation. The initiative simulates the route between the Institute and the Santa Cruz subway station, allowing people with Intellectual Disabilities and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to experience real public transportation situations through virtual reality glasses—an essential experience to promote autonomy, reduce fear, and develop urban skills.
“The project is a concrete tool for inclusion. When a person with an intellectual disability or ASD is able, through technology, to experience daily life safely and gradually, they gain the confidence to face real challenges, including commuting to work. This means more independence, more access, and more dignity,” explains Flávio González, Social Inclusion Coordinator of the Jô Clemente Institute.
During the event, the IJC will also promote the lecture “Inclusion of neurodivergent individuals through supported employment: experiences, challenges, and pathways”, sharing evidence-based practices and results achieved over more than six decades of work in promoting autonomy and professional insertion.

An ecosystem of inclusion and social transformation

Stop Maurício Macedo, the event represents a milestone in the dialogue between inclusion and the labor market: “Reatech and Arena Empregar symbolize the new era of inclusive employability.
