We visited the city of Porto Alegre in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. During the meeting, we were received by industry leaders and #business in the region, members of the Regional Bank of Development of the South and the Governor’s Office. Porto Alegre is the fourth largest metropolitan area of the country and a #political, #economic and #cultural centre for the southern regions of Brazil. The city and state are regional leaders with an economy based around #agriculture, leather, #petrochemicals, #manufacturing and #telecommunications, with a GDP of more than R$ 30 billion. It has a major port that allows the exports of agricultural and industrial products of the southern hinterland. Learn about investment opportunities in #Brazil at #AIM2020. Visit www.aimcongress.com.
