Major opportunities for Irish companies and Higher Educations Institutes in Ireland’s largest Latin America market
The Minister for Education and Skills, Ruairí Quinn T.D., recently led a major Enterprise Ireland education and technology mission that included 30 companies and education institutions to Brazil.
The mission, organised by Enterprise Ireland which ran from October 19th to 25th coincided with a major higher education fair in Sao Paulo and Futurecom, the largest Telecommunications, Information Technology and Internet event in Latin America.
Jennifer Condon, Head of Internationally Traded Services and Software at Enterprise Ireland, described the mission as a very timely and exciting opportunity for Irish firms seeking to expand their global market presence.
“There are significant and realisable opportunities for increased trade and partnerships between Irish and Brazilian companies and education institutes. With an intense schedule of education and trade focussed activity, the mission will give the participants important networking opportunities with their Brazilian partners, and support for their market entry, development and sales strategies. We are confident that further growth and business success will come from this mission and will support our clients in every way possible to exploit this huge market,” she said.
