Nov 19, Brasilia: Inovativa Brasil, the largest startup acceleration program in Latin America, was, for the second consecutive year, in first place in the 100 Open Startups ranking, an initiative to support innovative entrepreneurship.

“The program was indeed awarded, but, most importantly, is that our startups, the startups that participated in Inovativa, are also standing out.

And, as the undersecretary announced, Inovativa Brasil has a lot of news ahead of it. “Inovativa, which today is a startup acceleration program, will become a major hub for startups. What does that mean? We will continue with the acceleration initiatives, where more than 2,200 startups have already passed, but we will have other fronts, such as, for example, the ecosystem ”, says Nazareth. According to him, through this ecosystem, the program wants to interconnect and connect these startups with large Brazilian companies, in all regions of the country.
Another challenge of the program, according to the undersecretary, is to offer distance training courses. “It's free online content that will support these startups and entrepreneurs during their development,” he adds.
Inovativa Brasil's goal is to serve 15,000 startups in the coming years. "And we will do this for free with our top-level mentors to support all startups interested in the program," says the undersecretary.
