São Paulo Innovation Week 2026: The São Paulo capital as the epicenter of global innovation

The city of São Paulo is preparing to host the first edition of São Paulo Innovation Week (SPIW), an event taking place from May 13 to 15, 2026. The festival will occupy the premises of the Mercado Livre Arena Pacaembu and FAAP, with a monumental structure designed to receive more than 90,000 people. The meeting consolidates itself as one of the greatest innovation milestones on the continent, operating from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM and transforming the São Paulo capital into a living laboratory of ideas that will shape the coming decades.

A multidisciplinary program distributed across dozens of simultaneous stages

With 33 stages operating concurrently, SPIW proposes a journey that transcends purely technical debate. The event’s curation seeks to connect science, technology, business, culture, and behavior, investigating how digital and social transformations impact the economy and daily human life. According to Bruna Reis, Executive Director of the event, the central objective is to provoke profound reflections on the future of society, going far beyond the exhibition of new technological tools to focus on the real impact of these changes in building tomorrow.

Renowned global thinkers and scientists confirm their presence

The festival brings together a cast of high-profile international speakers, including figures such as Spike Jonzen, Daniel Goleman, Steven Pinker, Douglas Rushkoff, Luc Ferry, Gilles Lipovetsky, and Dmitry Muratov. In the scientific and academic field, the debate will be enriched by specialists such as Adam Frank, Didier Queloz, Marcelo Gleiser, and Suzana Herculano, who will explore themes such as consciousness and evolution. The diversity of voices extends to Brazilian thinkers like Ailton Krenak, Monja Coen, Rita von Hunty, and Martha Medeiros, ensuring a plurality of ethical and cultural perspectives.

Strengthening ecosystems and strategic partnerships in the corporate sector

Making an event of this magnitude possible relies on the support of major global and national brands that lead their respective markets.
