The Netherlands Innovation Attaché Network (NIN) stimulates international cooperation between companies, knowledge institutes and governments in the fields of innovation, technology and science.

NIN Brazil is located in São Paulo and is active in all of Brazil.

Innovation is one of the key drivers of economic growth and determines the competitive position of the Netherlands in the world. The Netherlands is doing excellent given the positions on the various rankings. At the same time, developments are so rapid that insight into the latest trends, network access, and discovering new collaborative capabilities are crucial to maintaining and strengthening the top-five position.

NIN helps support companies and organizations realize their international ambitions. This can be done by, for example, organizing missions on specific themes or helping with matchmaking. NIN is part of the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy.
