Services sector grows for the fifth consecutive year in 2025, says IBGE
The services sector in Brazil has seen growth for the fifth consecutive year in 2025, particularly driven by technology-related services.
According to the latest data from Brazil's Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), the services sector experienced growth for the fifth consecutive year in 2025, with an increase of nearly 3% compared to the previous year. This growth highlights the ongoing expansion and importance of services in the Brazilian economy, particularly those related to technology. Companies are increasingly investing in projects that leverage artificial intelligence to enhance operational efficiency.
The report indicates that the demand for technology services, such as the development of artificial intelligence programs for automating engineering tasks, is on the rise. André Ribeiro, a young professional in IT, exemplifies this trend with his current project focusing on detecting faults in power towers. Despite a slight decline in the sector's performance in December 2025 compared to the previous month, technology-related information services and those catering to families continued to show resilience and maintained positive momentum.
This sustained growth in the services sector is expected to present ongoing opportunities for improvement and innovation. As businesses adapt to new technological advancements, the integration of AI and automation is likely to be a focal point in enhancing service delivery and operational practices. The positive trajectory of the services sector not only contributes to economic stability but also reflects a significant shift in how companies approach operational challenges and customer needs across Brazil.
