Aedes aegypti targeted by Braskem's entrepreneurship stimulus program
The Braskem Labs program to stimulate entrepreneurship at Braskem will be selecting two projects that are intended to combat the Aedes aegypti mosquito. All ideas can be submitted. The Company's goal is to contribute to society's efforts given this urgent issue, which has a direct impact on the well-being of the population - according to the Epidemiological Bulletin of the Ministry of Health, as of March 5, 495,266 cases of dengue and 67 deaths from the disease were reported. Those interested in participating should submit their idea on the website www.braskemlabs.com by May 15.
