What is CONNECT?

CONNECT promotes the exchange of new entrepreneurs between Brazil and Europe. It aims to support promising entrepreneurs and SMEs to grow and develop their international outlook and competitiveness, promoting an exchange of experience between Brazil and CIP participating countries and enhancing entrepreneurship overall.

How?

CONNECT selected over 60 highly motivated European new entrepreneurs to enroll in a business mobility scheme in Brazil. It offered them the unique opportunity to collaborate and exchange knowledge with an experienced and successful host entrepreneur in Brazil, for a period of generally 3 months. The stay was partly financed by the European Commission.

In 2014/2015, over 60 candidates were selected and matched with a host entrepreneur in Brazil. Applications are now closed and no further wave competitions will open. Take a look at the Success Stories!

Thank you to all entrepreneurs from Europe who have applied and to all those who keep showing interest in the programme. Please register in our mailing list to receive a notification in case a new edition of the programme is created.
