Georgetown: Trade Americas and Connect Americas Expo will bring together hundreds of companies from the sector on September 3-4 in Miami
Latin American and Caribbean countries are expected to invest more than US$1.5 billion in infrastructural projects over the next 10 years, opening up many opportunities for companies that provide goods and services in the sector.
In order to facilitate the flow of information about these prospects, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) and the Latin Trade Group are organising “Trade Americas and ConnectAmericas Expo: Building the Americas”, which will be held September 3-4 in Miami, Florida.
During this event, the IDB will launch a virtual business community for the infrastructural sector, as part of the recently created platform ConnectAmericas.
Here, businesses will find partners and providers of goods and services; up-to-date information on various tender offers for infrastructural projects around the Region; learning tools for small-and medium-sized companies that wish to go international; and information about sources of financing.
The seminar will be attended by Government and business leaders as well as contractors, finance companies and businesses that offer goods and services in the infrastructural sector.
There will be discussion panels on opportunities to invest in projects involving renewable energy, energy efficiency, transport and logistics, urban infrastructure, public-private partnerships and financial innovations.
