In 2022, Ibmec Hubs served 40 startups, 20 in the pre-acceleration program and another 20 in acceleration. One of the participating startups last year was Gargo, a fintech that helps small and medium-sized companies manage cash flow.
According to Startup Base, from the Associação Brasileira de Startups, Brazil currently has approximately 22,500 startups in activity. The head of Ibmec Hubs RJ, Lucimar Dantas, highlights the relevance of the program for strengthening entrepreneurship.
“A robust entrepreneurial ecosystem needs mechanisms that welcome startups. Ibmec, which is a Business School, created Hubs, a program that delivers a lot of content, in addition to the connections that accelerate the development of these companies”, explains Lucimar.
The Hubs is based on the two campuses of Ibmec RJ, in Barra da Tijuca and in the Center, with capacity to receive up to 20 startups. After the registration period, proposals will be analyzed by the Evaluation Committee.
