The new entity has participated of historic meetings gathering men of free initiative for extensive researches and discussions that, for the first time, were being developed in Brazil in the social and economic fields, in order to indicate to the Nation the paths which seemed indispensable for the building of a stable, modern and progressive society.

Showing ways was not enough. Most important was the creation of instruments capable of converting in reality the theses, conclusions and projects developed by entrepreneurs. Labor social relationships among different economic categories were becoming more and more diverse and complex. Especially with the end of the II World War, issues of union nature emerged in the Brazilian society like never before.

The collaboration in commerce, economy and management teaching incentive programs; the contribution for the creation of lower level, pre-vocational and capacitation courses and schools; the vindication for the adoption of rules to assure fair competition and, according to commercial peculiarities and always aiming the improvement of distribution channels and goods standards, solidificated forever the valorization of those men involved in commerce. Entrepreneurs' integration has turned effective this idealism.
