2020 Impact Map

This study, carried out every two years by Pipe Social, is widely recognized in the impact business and investment sector. Fundo Vale is one of the sponsors of the Third Social and Environmental Impact Business Map, which maps businesses that are seeking to solve society’s social and environmental problems by registering entrepreneurs on a platform. This edition has a chapter that specifically analyzes social and environmental businesses.

Amazon Logistics and Marketing Lab

This initiative by Climate Ventures seeks to unlock logistics and sales barriers to promote the Amazon’s social and biological diversity products. The Lab is a structured innovation and co-creation space for prototyping and testing solutions that could boost the region’s bioeconomy. As a result of the program, the “Amazon at Home, Intact Forest” movement is being created, with the goal of scaling up prototyped solutions and serving at least 50 businesses over the next two years.

Bioeconomy Priority Program (PPBio)

Fundo Vale has supported this program, developed by Idesam and anchored in the Bioeconomy Priority Program defined by the Manaus Free Zone Agency (Suframa) for the Manaus Free Trade Zone. The program seeks to create local investment opportunities, incentivizing companies to produce sustainable development programs and projects for the region, using resources from the Information Technology Law (Law 13,674 of 2018), which requires local technology companies to assign 5% of their gross revenue to research and development activities in the Amazon. Idesam has developed a database of projects involving around 80 businesses. In 2020, R$6.3 million was invested, eight projects were supported and there were seven investor companies.)
