Abstract

This plan presents the main actions to meet the demands of connectivity infrastructure that benefits the research activities of the Science Center for Development in Digital Agriculture - CCD-AD Semear Digital (Fapesp process nº 2022/09319-9) and other projects research, development and innovation being carried out at the headquarters institution, Embrapa Agricultura Digital. Actions for the dissemination and transfer of technology and knowledge are of great importance, including support for the development of public policies and the establishment of new businesses, such as startups. This includes, as a strategy, constant proximity to the innovation ecosystem, the implementation of technology demonstration actions, training, among others, many of which require structured environments for face-to-face and virtual interactions. The connectivity infrastructure will benefit the research activities of the CCD-AD Semear Digital project. A significant gain is expected in the performance of virtual meetings, access to databases, in addition to other activities dependent on internet access, thus improving the research conditions of the project's technical team.
