Integrating FDI – Foreign Direct Investment - Into OverallEconomic Development Strategy of the State of Minas Gerais



Minas Gerais has a substantial local research capability in itsuniversities and other research institutions. This capability,

however, is focused on basic research, rather than on appliedresearch that will have industrial or commercial uses.

By improving linkages between universities and firms,

MINASINVEST will help to capitalize on this existing researchcapability for commercial purposes.

MINASINVEST has entered cooperation agreement with the main

research institutions in the State:

UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE MINAS GERAIS – FUNDEP/UFMGwhichs pools 14 R&D universities –

UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE VICOSA – UFV – largest bio-scienceuniversity in Brasil –

A key way to increase the economic impact is to bring inhigher value-added investment. While the availability of low-cost, unskilled labor is important to some types of FDI,

particularly export-oriented investment, attracting higher value-added FDI requires a well-educated, and trained or trainableworkforce.

Minas’ ability to attract this higher value-added FDI, therefore,is dependent upon greater investment in education and training,particularly at the technical and managerial levels.

PARTNERSHIP WITH: Business schools: FUNDAÇÃO DOM CABRAL and IBMEC Universities: UFMG, UFV

This provides a highly effective interface where industry needsare matched with academic strengths.
