Brazil strengthens its position as a global tech & innovation hub

Brazil is attracting record-breaking investments in the technology sector, solidifying its status as one of Latin America’s leading innovation hubs. With government incentives and the rapid growth of startups, the country is making significant advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, and fintech.

In 2025, the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation announced a new incentive package for technology and research companies, easing the entry of foreign investors and fostering the development of innovative solutions within the country. Additionally, Brazil recorded a 35% increase in investments in tech startups, driven by accelerator programs and private-sector partnerships.

International companies are also expanding their presence in the Brazilian market. Major tech players have secured new agreements to establish research and development (R&D) centers, further strengthening the local ecosystem. The AI sector leads the investment surge, with applications in healthcare, security, industry, and financial services.

With a rapidly expanding technology ecosystem and an increasingly attractive environment for investors, Brazil is cementing its role as a key innovation hub in Latin America. Equity views this shift as a strategic opportunity to connect investors with high-potential technology projects, providing access to a market on the rise.
