Startups Connected is the open innovation program developed by the German-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce and Industry of São Paulo (AHK São Paulo). We connect the actors of the German-Brazilian innovation and sustainability ecosystem to generate impact, projects and business. 

Our program possesses its own unique tools and methodologies for project acceleration, startup acceleration, matchmaking and custom projects. Customizable and pragmatic: this is our German-Brazilian way of doing it. 

Startups can join Startups Connected by submitting their solution to the “QuickBuy AI – AI Agent for Low-Value Procurement Automation” challenge, promoted by Siemens.

The applicant startup must offer a mature, validated AI-based solution capable of automating low-value procurement processes, including activities such as receiving purchase requests, identifying approved suppliers, requesting and consolidating quotations, analyzing proposals, and supporting the process through purchase order creation.
