247 - Under the leadership of experienced journalist Vassil Oliveira, the new branch of Brasil 247 is being launched today. This is Goiás 247, which joins the digital newspapers Brasília 247, Bahia 247, Rio 247, Minas 247, and Pernambuco 247, consolidating one of the main information platforms in Brazil. With a new affiliate, 247 becomes increasingly influential and present in various regions of the country – our goal is to reach all Brazilian states by the end of this year.

Goiás plays a leading role in Brazilian politics today, ever since the Carlos Cachoeira scandal broke. Better than anyone, readers in Goiás know the role played by 247, which, from the beginning, recognized the importance of the episode and published all the facts related to it without any censorship or political or ideological bias. We did this when several media outlets still didn't know exactly which direction to take, given the extensive reach of Cachoeira's network in both politics and the media. We were recognized by readers in Goiás and we are grateful to them all.

However, Goiás is much more than a political scandal. The epicenter of the Brazilian Cerrado, it is our "breadbasket of the world" and also concentrates large industrial activities. Few states have as much potential, both in agribusiness and in industry and distribution logistics, as Goiás. And it is this thriving economy that will also be portrayed by 247.

To all readers, welcome to the 247 network, which is both democratic and collaborative. Everyone is invited to write, participate, report, and submit story ideas.
