Transfero, a company specializing in blockchain-based financial solutions, is about to take five Brazilian startups to Web Summit Lisbon, a technology and innovation event to be held between November 11 and 14. The initiative is part of the Next Leap program, a collaboration with Unisuam, Sicoob Empresas, Coinchange and EBM Group, for the acceleration of companies with less than five years in the market.
The program started in August, with exclusive mentorship sessions that covered business development, revenue models, marketing and customer acquisition, product innovation, fundraising, and team management. After the training period, five out of 20 startups were selected to represent Brazil in Lisbon. The chosen ones are 95co, AmazBank, Bombordo, Infratoken, and Openi. Each will have the opportunity to be an Alpha exhibitor on one of the event days.
“The participation of Brazilian startups at Web Summit Lisbon demonstrates national innovation in a competitive global landscape, reinforcing Brazil’s role in the tech ecosystem. In addition to international visibility, it is an opportunity for new partnerships and investments,” says Márlyson Silva, CEO of Transfero and a speaker at the event.
