The Selection Phase for Up to 20 Projects, Which Will Participate in the Second Stage of Petrobras’s Selection Process, Starts Now

More than 250 projects from 21 states were submitted to the first call of the Petrobras Connections for Innovation program, held in partnership with Sebrae. Startups and innovative companies from all regions of Brazil submitted proposals. As the state-owned company has new latent projects in Brazil, this could be a great opportunity.

According to the Executive Manager of Petrobras Research Center (Cenpes), Orlando Ribeiro, the number of submissions is very significant for a selection of this nature. “This shows that there is a favorable innovation ecosystem to be fostered in Brazil. Petrobras, recognized for having innovation in its DNA, has much to contribute to this journey. We are already eager to meet the best projects,” says the executive.

After selecting the twenty best proposals, the second phase of the process will define the 10 winning projects, which will receive funding ranging from R$500 thousand to R$1.5 million each. The publication of the final results and the hiring of the projects should occur by the end of the year.

Connections for Innovation

With a total value of R$10 million for financing startups and innovative companies, the first call of the Petrobras Connections for Innovation program, launched in partnership with Sebrae, aims to stimulate the development of technological solutions that meet the needs of the oil, gas, and energy business.

The announcement of this first call, launched in July, included presentations with the presence of representatives from Petrobras and Sebrae in twelve cities across ten Brazilian states.

The Petrobras Connections for Innovation program also provides for the realization of new calls, with a total investment of R$ 60 million over five years.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

Tax reform: September is the deadline for 22 million companies under the Simples Nacional.

Road at 4,173 meters in Pakistan only opens 4 months a year.

The bulb does not need to be replaced: an accessory compatible with any type of socket is starting to arrive in Brazilian homes and transforms ordinary light points into smart lighting without breaking walls, without renovations, and without rewiring the electrical installation.

Artemis II astronauts reveal incredible experience 252,000 miles from Earth, praise NASA technology, but admit to a scary moment during high-speed reentry.

A study reveals that climbers who reach the summit of Everest breathe only 30% of the oxygen available at sea level and may return with atrophy of the cerebral cortex, concentration difficulties for weeks, and possible neurological damage associated with extreme altitude.
