The program will be executed through three components: human capital, development and adoption of new technologies based on artificial intelligence, and promotion of the internationalization of companies in the knowledge economy. The co-executing agencies for the program will be the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation and the Ministry of Economy.

Both provisions empower the Ministry of Economy to sign the loan contracts and agree to their modifications, provided they do not constitute substantial changes to the object or destination of the funds.
