TIDE Centre x INPA Partnership

We are thrilled to announce a new strategic partnership between the TIDE Centre at the University of Oxford and Brazil’s National Institute for Amazonian Research (INPA)!

This exciting collaboration brings together Oxford’s leading expertise in bio-inspiration and INPA’s world-class knowledge in biodiversity and entrepreneurship to explore bio-inspiration as a transformative innovation and development strategy in the Amazon.

  • Together, we will advance research and initiatives focused on:
  • Nature-inspired energy technologies
  • Sustainable industrialisation pathways
  • Academic exchange and capacity building

As the world prepares for COP30, this partnership will shine a spotlight on the vital role of biodiversity and Indigenous knowledge in shaping a more sustainable and inclusive global development agenda.

We look forward to this collaboration with INPA—where nature, science, and innovation come together to imagine new futures. Stay tuned!
