The Sweden-Brazil Innovation Week (SBIW) provides a platform for the strategic partnership between the two countries in the areas of science, technology and innovation (STI). The goal is to promote Sweden as a long-term innovation partner for Brazil, fostering Swedish innovation environments, establishing collaboration with Brazilian partners and creating a meeting point for Swedish and Brazilian actors in STI areas. The SBIW also provide an overview of Swedish STI activities in Brazil. They are, in addition, a commercial promotion platform and an opportunity to explore, discover and analyze new business and cooperation opportunities between Sweden and Brazil.
The Sweden-Brazil Innovation Week is an event organized by Team Sweden Brazil: Embassy of Sweden, Swedish Trade and Invest Council (Business Sweden), Swedish-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (Swedcham), Swedish-Brazilian Research and Innovation Centre (CISB), and the Honorary Consulates of Sweden, mainly the Consulates General in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
In 2009, Sweden and Brazil signed a Strategic Partnership and the Bilateral Agreement for Cooperation in the areas of innovation and high-tech industry. This partnership took an important step forward when Brazil, in October 2014, decided to acquire the Swedish Gripen NG fighter jet system. The Gripen project consists in a strategic industrial relationship between Sweden and Brazil for the next 25-30 years, and involves cooperation in a wide range of sectors, not limited to defence. The Gripen cooperation will also bring human capital exchanges for both countries.
