Abstract

This plan establishes the main actions to meet the demands to support the maintenance and improvement of collective infrastructure to support the Science Center for Development in Digital Agriculture - CCD-AD Semear Digital (Fapesp process nº 2022/09319-9) and others research, development and innovation projects being carried out at the headquarters institution, Embrapa Digital Agriculture, located in Campinas, SP, as well as, in compliance with the requirements established by Fapesp policies.CCD-AD Semear Digital is based on proposals that value the applications of results, facilitating connection with public and private organizations, beneficiaries of scientific and technological knowledge in their actions. Therefore, actions to disseminate and transfer of knowledge and technology 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 relationship with 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.Considering the nature of the activities of the CCD-AD Semear Digital project, which includes the construction of a digital platform, development of technological solutions, Technology Transfer (TT) activities and frequent team meetings (including partners from other institutions) and training of multipliers in the technologies generated, and also, considering the current infrastructure of Embrapa Digital Agriculture, there is clearly an interdependence of the articulation and dissemination actions of the aforementioned project, including the revitalization of the auditorium, which is part of the training and promotion infrastructure for TT events. Therefore, in order to hold quality events, there is a need to modernize Embrapa Digital Agriculture's Collective Research and Innovation Infrastructure, with emphasis on acoustic, audiovisual, thermal comfort and safety facilities for event participants. In short, this infrastructure will provide a significant improvement in the research, development and innovation conditions of the CCD-AD Semear Digital project. (AU)
