The world is going through a period of intense transformations and consolidation of new information and communication technologies (ICT). So being innovative is increasingly becoming a principle of professional survival. Talking about student leadership means giving a voice to the people who are studying. Whether with the simple creation of opportunities for students to develop their own projects, or with a fully democratic system, these are experiences that seek to stimulate and strengthen students' autonomy, making them more active and responsible in the learning process. This qualitative exploratory research, which ‘in times of pandemic’, has become virtual and digital, investigates how the innovation habitats of Cefet/RJ, through student leadership, have contributed to society. Thus, this project aims to identify activities that were and have been carried out by the innovation ecosystem formed by innovation habitats, represented by their incubators, by the Junior Companies and by Enactus.
