The challenge

Open business opportunities for Dutch startups in Brazil at Web Summit Rio, while engaging Brazilian startups and talent with the Netherlands.

uPledge opened seed-funding conversations and won 550+ users in its first LATAM market, Mochadocs signed its first Brazilian partnership, and ScenWise partnered with a Brazilian startup.

“We are excited to transform the insights and connections gained into tangible business opportunities in Brazil.”
