  2. After a late start, science is boosting in Brazil Growth Brazil x World (1981 to 2008 )

  3. Scientific Papers: Brazil x France 1981-2008 Source: ISI - Institute for Scientific Information. National Science Indicators, USA. Base Deluxe - SCI (2008).

  4. S&T in Brazil for innovative tropical agriculture Petrolina, a prodigious garden in the desert GRAINS: oat, rice, peanuts, soy, beans, corn... R&D made the “cerrado” ideal for soy crops production R&D made Brazil a world leader in biomass area

  5. Biological nitrogen fixation and the soybean industry in Brazil After early failures (since 1909) research (in biological nitrogen fixation, soil, …) made soy one important crop (planted area production and exports) in Brazil. Soy contributes around 6 % of the Brazilian gross national product (GNP) . Around 1 million people are employed in the soy sector in Brazil.

  6. Fotos: Arquivo Natural Fashion Naturally coloured cotton

  7. Benefits of naturally colored cotton • Aggregates value • No need of dying • Reduces cost • Reduces consumption of water and energy • Reduces effluents to be treated

  8. Renewable Energy: Bio-fuels Brazil is the world leader in developing bio-fuels and their use in automobiles (eg. “Flex” cars) Brazil represents a great success story, as the country’s Alcohol Program dates back to 1919, when the first motors fueled by alcohol where developed to reduce dependence on petrol imports and enable the country to produce environmentally friendly and renewable energy.

  9. Renewable Energy: Bio-fuels From 1985 to 1990, around 90% of all automobiles manufactured in Brazil were powered by ethanol. To date, more than 10 million ethanol and flexible fuel vehicles have been manufactured in Brazil.

  10. Offshore technology: world leadership Prize to Petrobras from "Offshore Technology Conference" (OTC) Offshore floating platforms

  11. Petrobras: world's top producer of oil in deep waters 1983 Piraúna 293 m

  12. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) • Embraer + FAPESP [Funding Agency SP] • 7 Institutions: Embraer, CTA, USP – Poli & São Carlos UNICAMP, UFSC, UFU PUC-Rio • 3 enterprises: ESSS, CITS & DELTACORE. • 100 specialists.

  13. Marcopolo: a bus for pilgrims

  14. nanotech applications optical fiber innovative networks (clusters) automation new materials

  15. Santa Rita do Sapucaí: a community innovates (Minas Gerais, 35 000 inhabitants) • Electronics, informatics, telecommunications, textile • 8 000 jobs • Revenue in 2009: • US $ 1 billion 130 technology-base MSE

  16. Innovation in the Kitchen Freezing Food - the “pão-de-queijo” experience:problem in the cooling operation: natural yeast that didn't resist cooling! • Biotechnology & Food Technology • Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais • Universidade Federal de Lavras • Universidade Federal de Viçosa • Centro Tecnológico de Minas Gerais “cheese rolls” • Brazil ~ 500 MSE “pão de queijo” enterprises • Local Market ~ 8 000 clients • External Market: USA, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Venezuela, UK, Japan, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Spain, France, Israel, Singapore ... • Market annual growth ~ 100% (in 2005)

  17. Two or three things we know about innovation • Innovation research over the past two decades shows: • Innovation benefits from science but generally is not science driven • Innovation is pervasive across sectors - it is not confined to “high tech” environments • Innovation differs sharply across sectors (inputs, organization and actors, knowledge bases, risk profiles) • Innovation capabilities are cumulative over time • Innovation outcomes may be uncertain, but on the long range they are the main source of growth and jobs • Innovation is collective - it relies on the innovation environment

  18. Brazil: Mobilizing Knowledge for Development from Remembrance of Things Past to Great Expectations • Success cases and a spreading culture of innovation show that the country has the potential to fully develop its innovative capability • Not only high tech or information and communication technologies: making effective use of knowledge across economy and society • Improving interaction between policies, institutions, technology, people, and government • Diffusing knowledge to laymen, farmers, workers, enterprises, and government to improve lives

  19. A new global geo-economy
