BNDES Garagem is a BNDES initiative whose mission is to develop and foster entrepreneurship in Brazil by supporting entrepreneurs and startups.

​

The program is now in its second year, maintaining its focus on boosting impactful businesses that want to contribute to solving social or environmental challenges.

​

The program's acceleration methodology relies on the partnership of three reference organizations in the entrepreneurship ecosystem: Artemisia, Wayra and Liga Ventures.

​

The program, 100% free, supports entrepreneurs and their impact businesses in two stages: Creation, for those who are developing an impact business and want support to take their first steps, and Traction, for those who already have an impact business and wants support to grow.
