    Brazil Summit

    10 May 2023
    Which Path Will Lead to Stable & Sustainable Growth?
    In-Person Conference | New York | #FTBrazil
    Register now

    Brazil is the largest economy in Latin America and a business and economic powerhouse.

    Historically high prices for commodities are benefiting Brazil’s exports of minerals, beef, soy and iron ore and the country is likely to boost its share in global trade. Nearshoring is also on the rise as global supply chains are being reconfigured. On top of this, the private sector is playing an active role in Brazil’s decarbonisation strategy, with ambitious carbon capture and storage, green hydrogen and low-carbon biofuels projects being announced in recent months.

    • What is next for Brazil’s economic trajectory and how can the country be best positioned in the current uncertain economic and geopolitical context?
    • What solutions can Brazil offer to food security and supply chain challenges?
    • As the world moves towards greener, cleaner, and more inclusive economies, how can Brazil lead and benefit from this transition?
    • What role is the private sector set to play as a driver of sustainable and equitable economic growth?

    Join the 2023 summit to discuss Brazil’s economic and business environment, the opportunities to unlock the country’s enormous potential, its place in global affairs and the latest trade and investment trends.

    Key agenda themes will include:

    Macroeconomic scenarios, political and institutional outlook

    What has changed? Policy priorities under a new Government.

    Brazil on the global stage

    Geo-politics is changing the dynamics of Brazil’s positioning. Successfully navigating (and benefiting from) US-China trade tensions. Reconfiguration of global supply chains.

    The push for the environmental and social agenda

    Role and commitments of the private sector (not only mitigation but adaptation).

    Agri-food systems in Brazil

    Critical role in ensuring global food security. Sector transformation to meet environmental, climate, and social challenges. Investment opportunities.

    Infrastructure

    Which areas of infrastructure does Brazil most need to invest in? Roads, railways, energy, water, sewage or other segments? Opportunities in Green energy and sustainable infrastructure. Auctions, concessions and regulatory reforms underway.

    Green Hydrogen/Green Tech/Carbon capture

    Leveraging Brazil’s natural resources and capabilities to benefit from emerging investment opportunities.

    In-person experience

    The power of people coming together is never knowingly underestimated at FT Live, therefore our event will be held in-person providing the opportunity to meet and exchange views with like-minded leading business executives, government figures and investors.

    The event offers a unique opportunity to explore opportunities for the private sector while expanding your networks; take an active role in Brazil’s economic and sustainable future; examine fresh perspectives and current thinking on the topical issues, enabling smarter, more informed decision-making.

     Join us to make powerful connections, do business in real life and meet Brazil’s power players to spark industry change with us.
