AIT 10: Meet the sciencepreneurs

Meet the Brazilian and Swiss sciencepreneurs taking part in the 10th edition of the Academia-Industry Training and find out more about their innovative projects!

The Academia-Industry Training (AIT) is the result of a close collaboration between Swissnex in Brazil, the Leading House for the Latin American Region (University of St.Gallen), the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), and the Ministry of Science, Technology, Innovation and Communication (MCTIC).

The program supports Brazilian and Swiss startups by connecting talented researcher-entrepreneurs from both countries with industry innovation ecosystems, transforming their research into market-ready solutions. AIT provides a platform for international researchers to collaborate, exchange best practices, explore new markets, and create synergies, fostering innovation on a global scale.

The AIT program features two phases: an initial training camp in Brazil, where Brazilian researcher-entrepreneurs connect with their Swiss counterparts, followed by a second camp in Switzerland that unites the participants from both countries.

This year marks the 10th cycle of AIT! A milestone that celebrates a decade of successful collaboration and reaffirms our commitment to driving excellence in innovation, research, and education. To honor this achievement, we will bring together participants, industry leaders, and academic experts in a special edition.

Meet the sciencepreneurs of this year’s program—each representing a diverse range of backgrounds and expertise—who are eager to contribute to the continued success of the Academia-Industry Training.
