We propose a contribution to the understanding of the new challenges concerning economic development in Brazil and more particularly on University-Government-Industry relations. This triptych, academically called "triple helix", can be considered as a lever and motor for anchoring and developing economic investments in the territory. After having described the situation of the innovation system in Brazil, we propose to illustrate the contributions of the "triple helix" concept for two success stories in southern Brazil and explain how "triple helix" could influence the general climate for entrepreneurs in Brazil. From these two case studies, one can see the ability to promote public policies but also new innovative ecosystems as a consequence of a good enrollment and involvement in the university-government-industry relationships.
