Forest biotechnology for the future of noble timber.

Advanced forest genetics, precision management and proprietary cultivars — for a new productive foundation of noble timber cultivated in Brazil.

Philosophy

Smart Forests.

We believe the future of wood will be cultivated with science. We develop smart forests — living systems capable of producing noble timber with unprecedented productivity, efficiency and predictability.

Advanced forest genetics

Long-term breeding programs that select superior parent trees and develop noble-timber cultivars with predictable field performance.

Proprietary silvicultural protocols

Protocols tuned to each stage of the cycle, from sowing to harvest, with continuous reading of soil, climate and tree development.

Continuous observation of nature

p

Every planting is also a living measurement system that feeds back into forest science and guides field decisions.

The next generation of noble timber will be produced by cultivated forests.

Origin

Where it all began.

Genome Wood Group grew out of a question that took decades to answer.

In western Bahia, a family of woodworkers recognized, in trees planted by missionaries decades earlier, a wood with rare physical properties — a wood with the qualities of a noble timber at a moment when traditional species were steadily disappearing from the market.


There, a decisive intuition emerged: perhaps it was possible to cultivate, rather than merely extract, the noble timber of the future.


More than 30 years ago, a continuous program of selection and genetic improvement of the Melia family began, driven by the search for a tree capable of uniting wood quality, forest productivity and economic viability.


This work spanned generations and established the scientific foundation that supports Genome Wood Group today. Its first result was a highperformance hybrid cultivar. Its true result was opening a new possibility for noble-timber production in Brazil.

Its first result was a high-performing intraspecific hybrid cultivar.

Leadership

He led the development of Mogno Bahia®, running the Melia genetic-improvement program that gave rise to the cultivar. His background brings together knowledge of wood, woodworking and field-applied genetic selection. At GWG, he leads forest operations in Bahia, coordinating management, field production and the continuity of the breeding program.
A chemical engineer with training in business administration and marketing, he took part in the consolidation of eucalyptus forestry in Brazil. For five years he managed 35,000 hectares of plantations in western Bahia. At GWG, he leads the technological development of forest production systems and the organization of field-applied knowledge.
With a degree in Communications from ESPM and an MBA from ESADE Business School, she built her career at the intersection of brand, strategy and socialenvironmental impact initiatives. She was a co-creator of projects such as Origin Network, Cambia Festival, Blockos TV and UniãoBR. At GWG, she leads the company’s brand architecture and strategic communication system.

Investing Partners

An active role in strategic direction, institutional partnerships and the management of GWG. Production Engineer from Poli-USP and MBA from UCLA. He founded Plastrom Tecnologia and was founding partner and CEO of Sensormatic do Brasil. He works to bring to life high-technology projects in clean energy, new materials, immunotherapy and noble-timber reforestation. Sócio investidor com papel ativo na direção estratégica, em parcerias institucionais e na administração da Genome Wood Group. Engenheiro de Produção pela Escola Politécnica da USP e MBA pela Universidade da Califórnia (UCLA), iniciou a carreira como engenheiro industrial na Alcan Alumínio do Brasil e como consultor pela Booz, Allen & Hamilton em projetos no Brasil, EUA, Holanda e Argentina. Em 1987, fundou a Plastrom Tecnologia e foi sócio-fundador e CEO da Sensormatic do Brasil, líder em tecnologias para varejo, à frente da operação por mais de duas décadas. Atua há uma década na viabilização de projetos de alta tecnologia em energia limpa, novos materiais, imunoterapia e reflorestamento com madeiras nobres, e desde 2020 conduz o projeto Liberdade & Sonhos, voltado ao desenvolvimento na primeira infância.
