Dear partners,

We are delighted to welcome you to São Paulo, Brazil, for the 2026 Annual Meeting of our Brazilian-German Collaborative Research Initiative. It is an honor to host all of you at InovaUSP, the Innovation Center at the University of São Paulo (USP).

São Paulo is Brazil’s largest metropolis and one of the leading economic and cultural hubs in Latin America. The University of São Paulo, in turn, is among the continent’s largest and most prestigious institutions of higher education. Founded in 1934, it is renowned for its academic excellence and substantial scientific output across multiple fields of knowledge.

Our meeting will take place at InovaUSP, the University’s Innovation Center, inaugurated in 2017. Since its opening, InovaUSP has evolved into a dynamic environment dedicated to fostering and hosting collaborative, multidisciplinary applied research initiatives. Among its key examples is the Fábrica do Futuro learning factory and the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, along with several other strategic programs. The venue is centrally located within the green and spacious Cidade Universitária campus.

The program under development will provide opportunities for technical discussions and interaction, as well as technical visits to USP laboratories. A complementary cultural program will also be suggested.

We hope this initial information supports your planning for the meeting in São Paulo. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the staff at any time.

Best regards,

Eduardo Zancul and Klaus Schützer
