Completed2018 – 2020

Innovation Portal

Getin Aceleradora and Topos Informática

Innovation management software: it gathers employees’ ideas for companies’ internal challenges, organizes the funnel from idea to project and gives access to funding calls and investment opportunities.

The story behind the project

The Innovation Portal is innovation management software created at Topos Informática and brought to market by Getin, the accelerator born inside the company. It works as a channel to gather employees’ ideas for internal innovation challenges, evaluate them and follow them until they become projects, while also giving access to funding calls and investment opportunities.

The Portal was the main driver of the 2018/2019 National Innovation Award, by CNI and Sebrae: Topos took first place in Innovation Management and in Organizational Innovation, competing with 1,746 companies, and was a finalist in Process Innovation. At the end of 2019, Getin won the POR TI Bahia Award, by Assespro-BA, as Solution of the Year among micro and small businesses. In 2022, version 2.0 of the Portal was part of the case with which Getin won the National Innovation Award in Innovation Management.

I was on the Portal team as a CNPq research fellow, doing applied research on innovation management, open innovation and funding policy, and I was at the award ceremony in São Paulo.
