B2E followed all the steps of the application process for the Interface Mission, within the scope of the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR), and submitted the CoLAB proposal. Once approved, the funding will be applied primarily to maintaining the current team, as well as acquiring office supplies and IT equipment, and other strategic investments.

The competition has a total budget of R$ 80 million, which can be used to support HR qualification, equipment modernization, and technical training of assets. The procedure is monitored by ANI, the National Innovation Agency, which is the entity that manages and has been involved in the funding process for all CoLABs.

Next on the agenda is the presentation of two Innovation Pacts and a Business Innovation Mobilization Agenda, in which B2E is actively involved as a partner. All these proposals were considered eligible and obtained a “Very Good” rating in November 2021.
