Mafra Entrepreneurship Week
Through the Business Factory, the Mafra City Hall brought together entrepreneurs, experts, and businesspeople driven by the spirit of innovation and knowledge sharing.
From May 20 to 24, 2024, the Mafra City Hall, through the Business Factory, hosted Mafra Entrepreneurship Week, bringing together entrepreneurs, experts, and businesspeople driven by the spirit of innovation and knowledge sharing.
Lectures, conferences, debates, mentoring sessions, office hours, networking, and an open day were presented in an event conceived and produced by SBI, which sought to explore opportunities and create synergies toward a decentralized future in the world of entrepreneurship.
The conference "Decentralizing Innovation: Opportunities, Challenges, and Strategies for Success" concludes the initiative by exploring opportunities for dynamism and attraction for the decentralized establishment of businesses in the country, enhanced by the unique characteristics of each region.
Several sessions are scheduled, such as the keynote "Cultivating Success: Lessons in Leadership and Innovation on the Entrepreneurial Journey" and the panels "Decentralizing Entrepreneurship: Opportunities and Challenges" and "Bridge to the Future: The Importance of Synergies between Startups and Established Companies," in addition to the announcement of the winners of the MafraUp Ideas Contest.
