GCN Investor Conference in Newport Beach, CA
OCT 15 · NEWPORT BEACH, CA
LIVE EVENT
Latin America's largest and most productive research university, in the region's biggest business city.
The University of São Paulo is the largest university in Brazil and produces more research than any other institution in Latin America.
Its engineering, medical, and agricultural programmes are the strongest in the region, and its agricultural campus underpins Brazil's position as a global agricultural producer.
São Paulo is Latin America's financial capital and by far its largest startup ecosystem, with fintech as the dominant category.
Brazil's large domestic market means companies can reach substantial scale without leaving the country, which is unusual in the region.
Alumni founders are prominent across Brazilian fintech, agricultural technology, health, and enterprise software.
Agricultural technology is a particular strength, drawing on both the university's research and Brazil's agricultural scale.
São Paulo hosts the deepest venture community in Latin America, plus substantial corporate and bank-affiliated capital.
Brazilian public research funding agencies support early technical work at meaningful scale.
GCN’s global network includes millions of startups and founders and a broad community of investors, creating opportunities to discover potential connections across university communities.
