CANCELED: Doing Business in Brazil: A Country in Transition

From the organizers, The German American Chamber of Commerce:

We continue to monitor the rapid developments regarding the COVID-19 outbreak, the health and well-being of our employees, partners and members is our top priority. As a result, our events and other activities are being heavily impacted. Listed below is the status of all of our events that were scheduled to take place in the month of March. A refund will be issued to those who paid to attend those events.

The attorneys of Baker Donelson presented a very informative webinar: Coronavirus (COVID-19): What Your Business Should Do Right Now. If you were not able to join you can view the recording of the presentation here.

Brazil has always been an interesting and important market for many American and German companies. As the fifth largest country and the ninth largest economy in the World, the Brazilian market offers great potential for international companies. Although Brazil is still considered to be one of the most complicated countries for doing business according to the Doing Business Index of the World Bank, the country is often connected to incorrect stereotypes and misunderstandings which tend to increase complexity in bilateral economic relations. It is not only possible to do business—Brazil offers solid perspectives for companies that choose to begin with the correct approach.

What to expect:

• Understanding the present political agenda and its meaning for the development of the country
• Current economic and political situation in Brazil
• Basic guidelines for imports and exports in Brazil
• Do’s and don’ts when doing business with Brazil
• Sao Paulo and the German Brazilian Chamber of Industry and Commerce of Sao Paulo—your gateway to the Brazilian market
• Q&A
