The Centro de Empreendedorismo e Novos Negócios da Fundação Getulio Vargas –
FGVcenn will promote in 2012 the 5th edition of the Idea-to-Product Competition – Latin
America. 


The Idea to Product® Competitions, founded at The University of Texas at Austin are 
early-stage technology commercialization plan competitions that aim for unique 
products - ideas with clear market demand that use innovative technologies.  


The goal is educating and developing the next generation of technology entrepreneurs. 


The program is particularly interested in matching technologies resulting from a university’s
fundamental research programs with potential markets. 


From now the FGV is responsible for the Latin American version of the challenge. 
The winning team will be automatically invited to participate in the Idea-to-Product Global, in the United States, with the winners from others local competitions. 


The Latin American contest wishes to bring to Sao PaUlo a representative from each of the most important schools from all 33 countries in the region.


Idea-to-Product Latin America is an innovative competition inspiring the innovative spirit in students around Latin American countries where participants develop a technology commercialization plan to confirm the validity and market potential of a new, innovative, and competitive product. 


Students then present the commercialization plan to a group of knowledgeable judges. 


I2P’s mission is to create a competitive Latin American forum in which to enhance cross-disciplinary studies in entrepreneurship, research, technology & emerging markets.
