Congresso em Foco digital news portal

Congresso em Foco is a prominent Brazilian digital news portal that specializes in politics, legislative oversight, and investigative journalism. Launched in 2004 by journalist Sylvio Costa, the platform has become a critical independent voice in monitoring the Brazilian Congress and its activities.

The brand originated in Brasília, the political center of Brazil, and its production (content creation and digital hosting) is based within the country. It is owned by the company Congresso em Foco Serviços de Internet Ltda. The platform is widely recognized for its annual award ceremony, the 'Prêmio Congresso em Foco,' which identifies and celebrates the best-performing parliamentarians as chosen by the public and journalists. It remains an independent media outlet headquartered in Brazil.
