São Paulo – Brazilian companies interested in business and partnerships in Sudan can participate in an online event on the country that’ll be hosted on Thursday, May 20, at 9:00-11:00 am (BRT), or 2:00-4:00 pm (CAT). The webinar is aimed at Sudanese companies that want to approach Brazil-based companies. The lectures will be in Portuguese and English and feature translation into both languages. Registration is open. Pictured above, Kartoum.
The event “Sudan: Technologies and Business Partnerships Opportunities for the Brazilian and Sudanese Companies” is held by the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (ABCC) in partnership with the Afro Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (AfroChamber). The event was first suggested by the Brazilian ambassador to Kartoum, Patrícia Lima.
According to ABCC secretary-general & CEO Tamer Mansour, now is the time to address the changes in Sudan and present them to Brazilian companies. The country has gone through a new economic phase since late last year, when the United States removed Sudan from the “States Sponsors of Terrorism” list, thus lifting sanctions on countries and companies that trade with Sudan.
“It’ll be very helpful for Brazilian companies that want to work with this market and we’ve certainly identified clear opportunities for exporting agriculture machinery and general machinery to Sudan, but we also believe there’re strategic partnerships to be established in that country. Sudan is a major agricultural producer but needs technology transfer and Brazilian expertise,” Mansour said.

It’ll also feature state-run agricultural research agency Embrapa researcher Marília Regini Nuti and CTC Group Agricultural Technology Transfer director Mamoum Dawelbeit. ABCC Institutional Relations manager Fernanda Baltazar will moderate the talks.
