The 14th Unicamp Ventures Annual Meeting, organized by the Inova Unicamp Innovation Agency and the Unicamp Ventures (UV) group, will take place on October 24th, at the Unicamp Convention Center (CDC), from 14:30 pm to 20 pm. The new edition of the event has many new features with the aim of offering a broad space for networking and sharing information and experiences between entrepreneurs and other entrepreneurship actors; in particular, to students and Unicamp’s daughter companies.
