The 4th Incubation and Impact Acceleration Challenge, promoted by National Association of Entities Promoting Innovative Enterprises (Anprotec), by the Institute of Corporate Citizenship (ICE) and by Sebrae, awarded in August, during the Innovation Summit Brazil, in Florianópolis, the five best incubation and acceleration programs in the country, presented by the participating initiatives.
The Partners for the Amazon Platform Acceleration Program was selected as the best in the North region. Those chosen competed with more than 30 initiatives from across the country. The award includes participation in an International Mission for impact-relevant ecosystems, mentoring ICE members, and registration for the Anprotec 2020 Conference.
The Challenge is part of the Incubation and Impact Acceleration Program, which aims to mobilize accelerators and incubators throughout Brazil to include or expand their operations with businesses with social impact.
“Being among the awarded initiatives is a great recognition for the PPA Acceleration Program, we are the newest initiative in the group, with just over 12 months of existence and running the first cycle of business acceleration. The merit is shared with all PPA partners, fast-paced entrepreneurs and funders who believe in the program's potential to generate more and more impact on forest conservation and income generation for families in the Amazon. In addition to recognition, taking part in the training and exchange process with organizations that specialize in the area was a rich and important process for structuring the program”, assesses Ana Carolina Bastida, coordinator of the Acceleration Program at PPA.
