Hi Vitoria,
Short answer: You're not necessarily.
Brainstorming questions aren't always about getting the exact right answer. Rather you need to show structured thinking (i.e. think about a few key themes) and show an ability to have good ideas.
In this particular case, the interviewer is supposed to tell you about this new opportunity - there's no way you could possibly guess about it!
