IJGlobal is over the course of the next two months hosting 2 events that will be of particular interest to people active across the Latin America infrastructure and energy markets.

On Tuesday 17 November IJGlobal will host this year’s virtual conference about the Brazilian infrastructure and energy project finance, IJBrazil20. The next month, December, IJGlobal will also hold a virtual event focused on Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador and Argentina, IJAndean20.

While the Covid-19 pandemic may have put new projects on hold in Brazil in the short-term, the dynamics have not changed for a country ripe for infrastructure and energy investment. 

Brazil enters the next phase of foreign investment courting that will have a powerful impact on the country’s infrastructure development. As PPPs and privatizations of rail, roads and airports start to accelerate, and with power projects seen by the government as one of the main pushes for economic recovery from the pandemic, the time is now for the country’s vast potential to be capitalised on. 

Join us as we bring together the top senior executives and industry experts from across the globe to address key opportunities and challenges of investing in Brazil for 2021. CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
