About Us

We are a group of researchers in innovation, technology and entrepreneurship!

We have professionals from different institutions and companies in different countries.

The Rio de Ideias - RDI group emerged more than 10 (ten) years ago when its main creator, civil engineer Marcos Cotrim Serpa, sought to build a marketplace to bring together the entire life cycle (from ideation to the final product) of innovative products and services. that would improve the quality of life of the Carioca Citizen.

Anyone could come up with an idea, someone else would materialize the idea (through investors) and the product would be sold in our online store or in partner stores. Note: Although there are several similar Projects, we have not yet found any like the one we designed.

​

Along the way, the Group's creator met many "brilliant minds" who were identified as having this "vision of the future" and invited to be part of this very select and special Group that is the "Rio de Ideias - RDI" Group.

​

The Group started as a small group, with few participants and, over time, became consolidated and qualified. Currently counting on professionals, collaborators from the largest companies and Universities in the world, such as; NASA, META and Texas Tech University-TTU, the Technological Institute of Aeronautics-ITA, UERJ, UFF, PUC and UFRJ among others.
