Brazil-Netherlands Brainports Hub

​

      The Brazil-Netherlands Brainports Hub, or simply "BraiNports Hub" draws inspiration from Brainport Eindhoven in the Netherlands, a global leader in innovation. Our mission is to integrate this exceptional model with the cutting-edge innovations of São José dos Campos, creating a new Brainport. This is why we refer to it as the "Brazil-Netherlands Brainports Hub."

​

​      Although we are a private initiative, the Brazil-Netherlands Brainports Hub has formed strong partnerships with key organizations, including the São Paulo State Government, São José dos Campos City Hall, PIT Parque Tecnológico de São José dos Campos, Unifesp - Universidade de São Paulo, and others.

 

       This initiative aims to facilitate the exchange of innovation, technology, science, and entrepreneurship between the Netherlands and São José dos Campos, encouraging collaboration and driving technological growth.
