The objective is to encourage entrepreneurs and startups to spread ideas and projects
When registering on the portal (www.sebrae.com.br/likeaboss), the internet user will answer a brief questionnaire, which allows for a diagnosis of the business or idea in its initial phase, outlining a profile of the entrepreneur. With this, it will be possible to identify the maturity stage of the startup or project. Then, the entrepreneur is directed to an area of the portal with information according to his needs. Therefore, it will be possible to find targeted content, information about events and options for funding notices, depending on the maturity of the startup.
“The proposal is to enable greater interaction between Sebrae, entrepreneurs and startups, identifying their needs and the respective solutions that we can offer or those that already exist in the ecosystem itself and that are more suitable to serve them. This will strengthen and boost digital businesses, in addition to expanding our interface with these entrepreneurs”, points out Heloisa Menezes.
Based on this new platform, Sebrae will support nascent businesses and leverage existing ones. “For this reason, initially the site will provide reports with indication of startups for investors and institutions in the ecosystem. Subsequently, the portal will be opened to the registration of investors themselves. Therefore, the platform can be used as a 'showcase' for startups and their products, enabling concrete business opportunities”, says the technical director of Sebrae. The search can be done by state, categories and by maturity level.
In the future, the portal will also function as a social network for entrepreneurs. According to the director, “it will be, in addition to an open communication channel, an environment of connections and exchange of knowledge”.
From the aggregation of profiles on the portal, the platform will also serve as a database for the selection of startups in the face of Sebrae's challenges and projects throughout Brazil.
