Brazil Spreads Its Wings
Brazil is a world leader in agriculture, bio-fuels, oil and gas and the manufacturing and engineering sectors, an emerging business hub for Latin America, and an increasingly prominent player on the world stage.
Against the backdrop of sustained growth over the last few years that certainly couldn't have been predicted as little as a decade ago, Brazil is also on the brink of a domestic infrastructure boom - after securing host nation status for both the World Cup (2014) and the Olympic Games (2016).
As the country looks set to enter a dynamic period of economic activity - both at home, and away - what is driving the key growth trajectories, and what must the Asian and Brazilian business communities do to make the most of new opportunities - in infrastructure, energy and innovation and others - and further strengthen existing ties?
Our speakers will share their insights concerning the increasingly significant role of Brazil on the international stage and the positive shifts in the political and business landscape that are drawing international investors to its shores.
Held in parntership with HSBC , these dinners will be packed with practical information on Brazil's significant investment opportunities, the implications of the general election in October 2010, and what Asian companies can do to capitalise on this burgeoning growth in a sustainable and socially responsible way.
