A Program From The Ministry Of Economy Provides Guidance For Entrepreneurial Projects For Free And Online
Brazil is one of the world leaders in entrepreneurship; however, many still suffer from a lack of training or support for these innovative businesses to achieve success. If you have developed a project and still do not know how to get it off the ground or have not found the ideal model for your business, it is possible to access the incubators and accelerators in Brazil for free and 100% online through the Ideiaz Program, from the Ministry Of Economy.
To access this great opportunity, just register for the Ideiaz Program – Powered by InovAtiva, from the Special Secretary for Productivity, Employment, and Competitiveness of the Ministry Of Economy. Sebrae and the National Association of Entities Promoting Innovative Enterprises (Anprotec) are also part of the project.
The project primarily aims to support the development of innovative projects that are still in their early phase and projects that have a socio environmental impact.

Rafael Wandrey, General Coordinator of Innovative Entrepreneurship and New Businesses at the Ministry of Economy, emphasized that they are ready to support innovative projects: “We are prepared to help all entrepreneurs who have ideas to turn them into businesses and, in the future, turn startups into better products and services for the entire Brazilian market.”
The approved projects will receive support from 35 incubators and accelerators in Brazil. The projects will include at least 25 hours of training, with 15 being individual. The project to be selected cannot have a consolidated business model, and the service or product must not have been commercialized.
“At the end of the cycle, the goal is for all these projects to arrive with their business model structured and validated, with a prototype already developed, whether of their product or service, presented to potential clients, and also a sales pitch of their business, product, or solution, so they can advance in the beginning of their entrepreneurial career,” he said.
