At the Helm of Lighthouse AG, Swiss Entrepreneur Expands His Presence in International Entertainment and Leads the International Growth of Brazilian Artists Across Europe’s Most Exclusive Markets
In recent years, the international entertainment industry has witnessed a growing movement of Brazilian artists entering Europe’s major cultural and entertainment hubs. While many of these stories appear to be individual success journeys, a new model of international expansion is quietly taking shape behind the scenes.
Leading this movement is Swiss entrepreneur Abraham Ackermann, Chairman of Lighthouse AG, an international company operating in telecommunications, media, financial services, technology, and entertainment. Leveraging an extensive global network built over decades across multiple industries, Ackermann has developed a strategy focused on the international expansion of Brazilian talent, connecting artists, DJs, influencers, actors, and producers with opportunities in Europe’s leading entertainment markets.
Rather than simply representing individual artists, Lighthouse AG positions itself as an international platform for artistic development, brand positioning, and long-term career building in global markets.
Mary Gripa Brings Brazilian Electronic Music to European Stages
One of the stories that best illustrates this strategy is that of Brazilian DJ Mary Gripa.

With only a few years of professional experience, Mary Gripa quickly transitioned from Brazil’s national music circuit to her first European tour, performing at some of the continent’s most exclusive destinations.
Her international debut took place in Monaco during the prestigious Formula 1 Grand Prix week, one of the most celebrated events on the global social calendar, attracting entrepreneurs, celebrities, athletes, and entertainment professionals from around the world.
She then continued to Milan, where she performed at renowned venues within Italy’s electronic music scene, including Philipp’s and Republic Milano, introducing European audiences to a repertoire that combines original performances with unreleased productions.
Beyond her live DJ sets, her own music became an integral part of the tour, strengthening her artistic identity while expanding her presence in the international music market.
The next chapter of her journey will take her to Ibiza, widely regarded as one of the world’s electronic music capitals, where she will continue establishing her career within the European scene.
Behind the Scenes: A Strategic International Positioning Project
Mary Gripa’s rise goes far beyond her performances.
Behind the tour lies a comprehensive strategy involving artistic planning, image development, visual identity, international positioning, and relationship-building with key players across the European entertainment industry.
This process is being led by Lighthouse AG, which creates opportunities for Brazilian artists in high-profile environments by connecting national talent with promoters, business leaders, global brands, and international events.
According to Abraham Ackermann, building an international career requires much more than booking performances.
“Developing an international career depends on positioning, relationships, credibility, and being present in the right environments. Our goal is to build strong, long-lasting careers by connecting Brazilian talent with Europe’s leading entertainment markets.”
Two International Success Stories Being Built in Parallel
While Mary Gripa continues strengthening her position in the international electronic music scene, another Lighthouse AG project is gaining increasing recognition within the audiovisual industry.
This project involves artist, DJ, and filmmaker Lipy Adler, whose career has earned significant recognition over the past few years.

After achieving success with productions featured on Netflix Brazil and Amazon, Lipy Adler recently participated in the Cannes Film Festival, one of the world’s most prestigious events in the film industry.
His international profile grew even further after being recognized by Forbes Latina as one of the professionals helping shape the future of Brazilian cinema on the global stage.
Alongside his work in film, several new international projects are currently under development, further expanding his presence within the global entertainment industry.
Although Mary Gripa and Lipy Adler operate in different creative sectors, both are part of the same internationalization strategy led by Abraham Ackermann.
Far Beyond Artist Management
Lighthouse AG has expanded its operations to become an international development platform for Brazilian artists, DJs, influencers, producers, and public personalities.
Its work encompasses strategic career planning, public relations, brand development, international networking, business negotiations, and participation in key industry events that contribute to long-term international positioning.
The objective is to build lasting connections between Brazil and Europe, giving Brazilian artists access to markets that have traditionally been dominated by European and North American professionals.
A Career Built on International Connections
Beyond his activities in entertainment, Abraham Ackermann has established a successful career as an entrepreneur, investor, and international business developer.
As Chairman of Lighthouse AG, he leads projects connecting Europe, Latin America, Africa, and emerging markets across telecommunications, media, financial services, automotive finance, and business development.
Throughout his career, Ackermann has participated in projects generating more than USD 100 million annually across multiple international markets, building a powerful global network that now serves as the foundation for new business ventures and cultural initiatives.
His portfolio includes telecommunications projects, digital solutions, interactive media, international artist management, event development, brand positioning, and business expansion across several continents.
Connecting Brazil and Europe Through Entertainment
The international growth of Mary Gripa and the continued success of Lipy Adler demonstrate that the movement led by Lighthouse AG is far more than a collection of isolated success stories.
Instead, it represents the creation of a platform dedicated to the international expansion of Brazilian talent, bringing artists closer to Europe’s most influential entertainment hubs.
More than opening doors to performances or exclusive events, the initiative focuses on developing sustainable careers, strengthening personal brands, and creating long-term international opportunities.
In an increasingly globalized entertainment industry, initiatives like this demonstrate that exporting Brazilian talent also depends on building strategic bridges between markets, cultures, and opportunities, transforming international connections into careers capable of crossing borders.
