The Corporate Venture in Brasil 2015 event in October last year was the launch of a program with a full suite of resources to support corporations doing business and matching partners, deals and technologies. Around 600 leaders and investors joined hosts Apex-Brasil and Global Corporate Venturing for this first industry meeting point in Sao Paulo. Last month was the second annual edition, with the third planned for the week of 23 October 23 next year.
