The company participates a national event that discusses innovation and R&D,to be held on December 1st, at 11 a.m.

The multinational company Tupy was selected to participate in the 20th ANPEI Innovation Conference, which will be held on November 30th and December 1st, in the city of Campinas (SP). The “Tupy Corporate Innovation Process” placed the company among the 20 most innovative cases, among the 70 registered for the event.

The case that will be presented at 11 a.m., on the Carlos Gomes Stage, talks about Tupy UP, an area of the Company dedicated to converting, accelerating, and scaling opportunities in new businesses and improving the existing ones through innovation and digital transformation. This process is coordinated in four dimensions: open innovation, intra-entrepreneurship & collaboration, promotion, and new business generation & operational improvements.

One of the initiatives that came from this process is ShiftT, that joins Tupy’s structure and expertise with entrepreneurial talent, creating shared value and sustainable development. In the first two cycles, 185 innovative businesses from across the country participated. In 2022, other countries such as the United States and Portugal also participated. In addition to the connection with the Company’s entire structure, that works as a proof-of-concept, the selected startups for ShiftT are exclusively mentored by Tupy professionals with experience in the most diverse areas of knowledge and receive training, by the Company, in innovation and new economy.

Another program belonging to Tupy Up is the Open Innovation Portal, in which the ecosystem is invited to contribute with innovative solutions for the Company’s business challenges. This initiative has already generated research lines and proof-of-concept for nanomaterials, computational vision, microbiology and bacteria.

“Being among the 20 most innovative cases in a reference event such as the ANPEI Conference makes us very happy, not only for the recognition, but especially because we show other equally relevant players how many competencies Tupy has, and how we are engaged in contributing to innovation” said Fábio Caramori, Innovation and New Business Development manager, who will present the case.

The National Association for Research and Development of Innovative Companies Conference (2022 ANPEI Innovation Conference) is in its 20th edition and is considered the biggest innovation and research event in Brazil. This year, the Conference offers a special program with more than 20 hours on new business, technology, artificial intelligence, people management and networking.

At the opening of the event, on November 30th, the lecture will be ministered by Cordell Hardy, the Senior Vice President of R&D at 3M. Other participants of the event include Carlos Melles, CEO of Sebrae Nacional, and Luiza Helena Trajano, chair of Grupo Mulheres do Brasil and of Magazine’s Board of Directors. The estimate is to gather over three thousand participants in debates and panels about innovation and sustainable development at the Royal Palm Convention Center, in the city of Campinas (SP).
