THE ACTIVITY AT A GLANCE

On November 3, our guest experts will speak about various aspects of doing business in Brazil.

A glimpse of the preliminary program is available here.

WHY BRAZIL?

Brazil is a strategically important economic power due to the size of its territory and its impressive population of 194 million inhabitants.

 

This country is endowed with natural resources and equipped with impressive transportation and telecommunications infrastructures. The mining, hydroelectric, and agriculture sectors are the driving forces behind the country’s development.

 

The social measures established by former President Lula are allowing a growing number of Brazilians to move up the economic ladder to the middle class each year. This market of new consumers is giving rise to an increased demand for goods and services in various spheres.

 

Brazil also represents:

  • Canada’s 9th largest trading partner in terms of exports
  • The world’s 7th largest economic power
  • Massive investments in infrastructures and social development
  • Privileged access to the Mercosur, which includes Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Venezuela.
Brazil’s economy is booming and, despite tariff barriers and other administrative challenges, many companies are doing very good business there.
WHO SHOULD TAKE PART?

All entrepreneurs looking to penetrate the Brazilian market—or already in the process—and seeking to learn more.

 

Businesses in the following sectors are especially targeted:

  • Transportation
  • Infrastructure work
  • Information technology and telecommunications
  • Agri-food
  • Life sciences and medical equipment
  • Aeronautics
  • Green technologies
  • Defence and security
  • Energy
  • Mines
Whether you are already exporting to Brazil or are simply taking your initial exploratory steps, don’t miss this opportunity to better equip yourself to conquer this promising market.
