Buamim said that Brazil has always been a great partner not only for Dubai but the entire Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and that several activities held together with the country have been successful. \u201cNow, after the pandemic, we\u2019re trying to live again, revive business, and not everything can be done online,\u201d the CEO said, mentioning they are turning all attentions to Expo 2020 and pressing three years of hard work into six months by holding several events and connecting people, as well as prioritizing more sustainable business for the region. The events will address topics such as climate change, space, water, and others. Once a week, a business event at the Expo will be held by the Dubai Chamber.<\/p>\n

Chohfi told Buamim that the Brazil pavilion at Expo will welcome authorities from the states of Paran\u00e1, Bahia, S\u00e3o Paulo, Minas Gerais, and Amazonas, and that the visit of president Jair Bolsonaro for the Brazil day at Expo on November 15 will come with a delegation of approximately 400 businesspeople, which can create great business opportunities.<\/p>\n

Next March the Expo 2020 will have a week focused on business with Latin America. \u201cWe see a huge potential in the region, and Dubai can help connecting these regions, and that\u2019s what we want to do here,\u201d Buamim said.<\/p>\n

He mentioned that the Brazilian agriculture relies on fertilizers from the Arab countries. \u201cWe want to sell foodstuffs to you, and we find it crucial to have a strategic relation in this regard. We could build upon that, not only in agriculture and food security but in investments in infrastructure, too, with the privatization of roads, ports and airports in Brazil,\u201d the ambassador said.<\/p>\n

ABCC secretary-general Tamer Mansour, who was also in the meeting. said that there are more than 30 Brazilian companies based in Dubai and that the entity has discussed alternatives to bring more products from Brazil to the region\u2019s market.<\/p>\n
