The information technology (IT) sector in Brazil has seen an increase in the number of businesses created over the last three years as digital transformation within companies accelerates, according to research.

Some 85,000 new businesses in the technology sector have been created in 2020, an increase of 25.1% in 2019, according to the study carried out by the Santa Catarina Technology Association (Acate) in partnership with technology firm Neoway, with support from the Brazilian Funding Authority for Studies and Projects (FINEP).

“We have seen sustainable growth, despite the pandemic. With the acceleration of digital transformation, we had an increase in revenues, [the emergence of] new companies, and [an increased] demand for staff”, said Iomani Engelmann, president at Acate.
