Technology and innovation initiatives are expanding across Brazil, with a focus on artificial intelligence, entrepreneurship, and telecommunications.

In Campinas, the Innovation Week 2026 highlights advancements in the energy and telecom sectors. CPFL Energia is showcasing the use of artificial intelligence, inspection drones, and electric vehicle fleets, while partnering with Microsoft for immersive workshops. Concurrently, Net Turbo Telecom is increasing its investment to support national expansion and talent acquisition.

The ongoing Campinas Innovation Week (CIW) 2026 has expanded its scope to include discussions on the impacts of AI regarding leadership, marketing, recruitment, and product development. The event also addresses digital agriculture, sustainability, and the role of women in technology. A significant development in the region is the approval by the Metropolitan Region of Campinas (RMC) Development Council to create the ‘RMC Deep Tech Valley’, a dedicated metropolitan hub for innovation and technology.

Broader national efforts include the Instituto Claro’s Campus Mobile competition, which encourages mobile technology solutions in health and education. Additionally, the organization Brazil at Silicon Valley has launched the Vale do Silício @ Brasil event in São Paulo, aiming to integrate Silicon Valley-style discussions and artificial intelligence operational strategies directly into Brazilian corporations.
