Florianopolis, Brazil - June 2026
Magic Island is opening institutional partnerships for a month-long August 2026 activation designed to make Florianopolis easier to discover, join, and build from.
The initiative connects the Magic Island Card, a shared public calendar, Founder Net, mobility, partner perks, venues, dinners, launches, investor programming, and independent ecosystem events into one coordinated month.
Magic Island is built for founders, builders, investors, operators, media, institutions, and local leaders who want Florianopolis to feel more connected during a high-signal month anchored by Startup Summit, Investor Week, the AI agents Hackathon, and the self-serve founder residency.
Magic Island is inviting institutions to partner through sponsorship, venue access, media support, educational programming, mobility, hospitality, research, talent, and ecosystem development. The goal is to create an activation that is useful in year one and fundable, measurable, and repeatable in the years that follow.
Institutional partners are invited to support
- Magic Island Card access and local partner benefits
- Founder mobility, venues, hospitality, dinners, and media
- Education, AI, compute, digital economy, talent, and research programs
- Public-facing ecosystem storytelling and post-event impact reporting
