Venture capital offered Brazil good opportunities for Brazilian
companies to grow and attract new markets. The existence of
an active venture capital market is of the utmost importance,
principally for the development of small technology-based businesses.
For
this purpose, Venture Capital Brazil website has been contributing
towards the consolidation of this market by spreading the culture
of venture capital in the country, disseminating information
in respect of this emerging market and by bringing entrepreneurs
and investors closer together.
Venture Capital Brazil website is part of the INOVAR Project, designed by FINEP - Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos (study and project funding institution) in order to develop an institutional structure for developing venture capital in Brazil. The partners of the INOVAR Project are the Inter-American Development Bank - IDB, SEBRAE, the support service for very small and small businesses, Petrobras Social Security Foundation - PETROS, CNPq - Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (National Council for Scientific and Technological Development), ANPROTEC, SOFTEX and IEL.
This attracts entrepreneurs who need capital to grow, venture investors seeking new opportunities, universities and technology-based incubators – granaries of new ideas and entrepreneurs, and institutional agents. FINEP is one of them, which actively induces the development of the technology industry of the country and which now plays its role in supporting the creation of an active venture capital market in Brazil.
