Agropolo Campinas-Brasil
June/2015
Agropolo Campinas-Brazil is an interinstitutional platform based on the concept of
colaborative innovation
as a new strategy for promoting research, technological development and innovations of products and services. The platform will work to improve the connection between higher education and research institutions and private sector, resulting in differentiated technological research to provide better opportunities to employment and income for Bioeconomy activities

VISION
From a
"FOSSIL-BASED ECONOMY“
to a
"BIO-BASED ECONOMY"

16. The Brazilian’s scenario
Brazil is a big player in agricultural commodities but is not a big player in “value added products”
The Brazil foreign trade sector is still quite small (around 8% of GDP) and highly concentrated in big enterprises and few products (mostly commodities). The participation of small and middle enterprises based on innovation processes is still very small
Therefore, with a population around 200 million people, Brazil needs a NEW ECONOMIC MODEL which can exploit sustainably its huge potential (abundance of fertile land, great biodiversity, among others) and world´s present condition
This is exactly what we are calling Bioeconomy based on sustainable “valued added products”

General Results
Opportunities for São Paulo State
Pioneering in the development of Bioeconomy in Brazil (largest tropical country in the world)
Develop a New Strategy in Scientific Research and Innovation
Mixed Units of Research (MURs) → New Business
Public Policies Needs
To increase and facilitate contact and communication between academy and private sector (e.g., calls, technological parks)
To develop ecosystems in Bioeconomy
To intensify “support partnerships”, for example: PIPE and PITE Programs from FAPESP
To incorporate “Business School” concept in curricula (Undergraduate and Graduate) and to stimulate the “Entrepreneur Culture” based on the knowledge
To intensify the professional training in Bioeconomy
To develop and stimulate the sustainable bio-based product markets (e.g., clean trade mechanism), and “New Markets” with global projection

18. Food Health Green Chemistry
General Results
Develop new sustainable agricultural models(e.g., rational land use, natural resources protection, higher productivity, new agricultural machines/equipment, multiple cropping)
Build the “Agriculture of the Future”
