Agreement reinforces strategic monitoring of Nova Indústria Brasil, as analytical intelligence aimed at the productive sector
THE Brazilian Agency for Industrial Development (ABDI) and the National Confederation of Industry (CNI) have formalized a R$5 million contract, in addition to a Technical Cooperation Agreement (ACT), to structure the first national industrial observatory in the federal government. The initiative aims to strategically monitor and evaluate industrial policy – New Industry Brazil, positioning the public sector as a driver of industrial development.
The observatory will be a data and information intelligence platform focused on disseminating analyses, studies and research on Brazilian industry. With the collaboration of CNI, which will provide sectoral data and information, ABDI will be responsible for structuring the observatory. This will be an important instrument to support the actions of the Ministry of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services (MDIC) to monitor NIB resources, observing whether they are applied efficiently and strategically.
According to ABDI president Ricardo Cappelli, the creation of the observatory is crucial to the success of Brazilian industrial policy. “Data intelligence is vital for the implementation of the New Industry Brazil. With the observatory, we will have a strategic hub to monitor where and how resources are being directed, which is essential for the neo-industrialization process,” says Cappelli.
The partnership between ABDI and CNI foresees several collaborative actions, including data sharing, team training and the development of studies and products that support federal industrial policy. The main areas of action include the exchange of technological information, the formation of hybrid teams for joint analyses and the development of data-based intelligence to understand and address the challenges of Brazilian industrial policy.
Roberto Pedreira, manager of the ABDI Monitoring and Evaluation Unit, emphasizes the central role of the observatory in monitoring the program’s actions. “The observatory will be the data hub, with information and analyses on Brazilian industry, serving not only the interests of the industrial sector, but also with an eye on the State and society. It will be essential to monitor the development of the six major missions and the 18 industrial niches prioritized in the NIB,” he highlighted.
