Brasília – The National Confederation of Industry (CNI) and the Social Service of Industry (SESI) have launched the Business Movement for Health (Movimento Empresarial pela Saúde – MES), an initiative designed to mobilize the industrial sector in shaping Brazil’s health policy agenda. The program seeks to foster collaboration between companies, the government, and health institutions to address systemic challenges in both public and private healthcare.

The MES will prioritize three central themes for 2026–2027: data intelligence and interoperability, mental health, and cost control in private health plans. According to organizers, around 70% of Brazil’s 53 million private health plan beneficiaries are covered through employer-sponsored collective schemes, positioning the industrial sector as a key player in discussions on sustainability, access, and innovation in healthcare.

The initiative is expected to enhance dialogue between industry and policymakers, promote public–private partnerships, and stimulate investment in health technologies, prevention programs, and workforce well-being.
