In both Brazilian and American contexts, single-person projects have become increasingly common with the rise of remote work, freelancing, and digital entrepreneurship. In Brazil, there's growing recognition of solo projects in the startup ecosystem and creative industries. In the USA, especially in tech and creative fields in NYC and Silicon Valley, solo projects are often viewed as entrepreneurial endeavors and badges of independence. The term reflects modern work culture's shift toward flexible, individual-driven contributions.
