Hortolândia is a Brazilian municipality in the interior of the state of São Paulo. It is located in the Metropolitan Region of Campinas, northwest of the state capital, about 110 km away. It occupies an area of 62.224 km², of which 24.5341 km² is within the urban perimeter and the remaining 37.7 km² constitutes the rural area. According to the 2022 Census (IBGE), its population was 236,641 inhabitants, making it the 38th most populous in São Paulo. It is part of the so-called "Expanded Metropolitan Complex", which exceeds 29 million inhabitants and accounts for approximately 75 percent of the state's population. The metropolitan regions of Campinas and São Paulo already form the first macrometropolis of the Southern Hemisphere.

Hortolândia was founded in 1991, separating from Sumaré. Its privileged location and proximity to the country's major industrial hubs led the municipality to undergo rapid demographic and industrial development, which had already been underway since before its emancipation, and it came to be considered a technology hub, with representation from several companies of highly advanced technological standing. These activities give the municipality the 89th largest GDP in Brazil, and it also has several campuses of renowned universities, such as the Federal Institute of São Paulo (IFSP) and the Adventist University Center of São Paulo (UNASP).
