The Espírito Santo Innovation Experience (ESX), the largest innovation event in the state, will take place on the 14th, 15th and 16th of June, at Praça do Papa. It is carried out by the Espírito Santo Micro and Small Business Support Service (Sebrae/ES) and the Capixaba Mobilization for Innovation (MCI). Registration for free participation is now open on the website. Just register at this link.
The expectation, according to the manager of the Sebrae/ES Innovation and Market Unit, Samuel Graciolli, is that the event’s audience will be the largest yet. “We expect around 30 thousand people over the three days of the event. The Espírito Santo innovation ecosystem is increasingly developing, with more and more opportunities. And the panels and lectures will have very current themes, such as artificial intelligence and ESG, which is sustainability in social, environmental and governance areas”.
The program will be distributed in several spaces, which will host some of the main names in Brazil linked to innovation and business. Among the confirmed speakers, the entrepreneur and former president of Grupo Abril, Walter Longo, stands out, who will speak about “How to rethink Education in times of artificial intelligence”. Executive Paula Harraca, a reference in ESG and people management, will bring “The new innovation agendas: sustainability and decarbonization”.
There will also be the Innovation Arena, so that the public understands where innovation fits into business and society. The Start Stage, in turn, will have thematic panels with diverse content for those looking to understand innovation in its different applications. The Rocket Stage will delve deeper into different innovative technologies.
The Talents of Tomorrow Space, which awakens entrepreneurship and innovation in children, was a great success last year and, therefore, will be bigger and even more interactive. ESX will also have the Acelera Space, where the most varied business rounds will take place.
Registration for exhibiting startups is open until April 28
Registration for startups to showcase their business and products at the event has been extended until April 28th. Up to 300 companies that develop innovative business models will be selected to be exhibitors at ESX. Entrepreneurs from outside Espírito Santo can also register here.
“It is a unique opportunity for startups to promote their services, connecting with potential partners and investors and strengthening their brand. In addition, there will be several potential customers and partners with whom entrepreneurs can do business”, highlights Samuel.
It is important to remember that, to be selected, startups must be in the operation or traction phase. At the time of operation, the business already has a viable product on the market. In traction, the startup is even more mature and expanding its activities. Check out the notice here.
