This innovative approach reaffirms Ocyan’s commitment to implementing advanced technological solutions, ensuring a leadership position among organizations that best engage with startups in Latin America, as highlighted by the TOP 100 Open Corps 2024. This recognition demonstrates Ocyan’s continued ability to promote collaboration and innovation.

For Ocyan, being honored with such an award for the fourth consecutive time highlights the dedication of the company in nurturing a collaborative ecosystem. The award recognized by Patrícia Grabowsky and CEO Jorge Mitidieri on behalf of the organization reinforces Ocyan’s forward-looking vision. Through strategic partnerships with startups, Ocyan is continuously shaping technological development in the energy sector. Believing in the power of collaborative innovation, Ocyan continues to set new standards in the regional and global market.

Recognition Of Open Innovation

Rio de Janeiro, October 21, 2024 – Ocyan, a prominent organization in the oil and gas sector, was highlighted as one of the top five companies in open innovation practices in the renowned TOP Open Corps 2024 Ranking. The recognition, which was revealed on Thursday, identifies the companies that excelled in open innovation through strategic relationships with startups both in Brazil and Latin America.

Commitment To Innovation

This award reaffirms Ocyan’s ongoing commitment to innovation, collaboration, and excellence in developing advanced technological solutions. ‘We are extremely honored to be recognized once again in the 100 Open Corps ranking. This demonstrates our relentless effort and ongoing commitment to innovation,’ stated Patrícia Grabowsky, Executive Manager of People and Innovation at Ocyan.

The company’s actions are based on strategic relationships with startups, involving hiring, partnerships, and the co-development of sophisticated technological solutions. The goal is not only to meet the sector’s demands but also to promote a more sustainable and efficient future. The award resulted from an evaluation of the companies’ initiatives from June 2023 to June 2024, reflecting the effectiveness of Ocyan’s innovation strategies.

Strategic Initiatives And Innovation Programs

Among the highlighted initiatives is the conclusion of the Ocyan Waves Booster program, created to accelerate startups and aimed at developing them as potential partners for innovative solutions in the oil and gas market. All four startups participating in the 2023 cycle advanced to the structuring of partnerships with Ocyan.

Additionally, the company reintroduced the Ocyan Waves Challenge for the 2024 edition, where it received over 180 applications from mature startups to tackle internal challenges.

Launch Of Nexio And Strategic Partnerships

Another significant milestone was the launch of the Nexio brand in collaboration with the consulting firm EloGroup. This is an innovative platform of digital products and services that promotes connections with startups to offer integrated technological solutions focused on performance management, operational intelligence, and energy efficiency.

These initiatives have allowed Ocyan not only to enhance its internal processes but also to collaborate effectively for the overall advancement of the sector. Since 2019, the company has engaged with startups through the Ocyan Waves program, which has mapped over 500 startups and launched more than 30 pilots.

Partnerships And Investment In Startups

In 2023, Ocyan entered into a strategic investment agreement with Vidya Technology, a startup specialized in asset integrity. ‘Vidya reached out to us through the Ocyan Waves Challenge a few years ago,’ commented Patrícia Grabowsky. This investment resulted in the acquisition of a minority shareholding, allowing Vidya to utilize Ocyan’s technical assets and expertise for the implementation of new innovative projects.

Evolution And Recognition In The Ranking

Ocyan’s award history illustrates its continuous excellence. In 2021, upon entering for the first time, the company reached the top 3 in the Oil & Gas category. In 2022, it moved up to the Top 50, reaffirming its growth. Maintaining its position in the Top 3 of the category and securing second place last year, Ocyan faces the growing competitiveness of the 100 Open Corps ranking, highlighting open innovation practices in Brazil.

Future Commitment

Ocyan remains committed to investing in strategic partnerships and developing innovative solutions that promote its growth and contribute to a more sustainable future. This dedication is a hallmark of the company’s trajectory, ensuring its leading role in the market.
