Networking session for professionals and entrepreneurs from Brazil in Barcelona

The Brazilian professional and entrepreneurial community in the Barcelona area is becoming increasingly numerous and with firmer roots. For the purposes of strengthening these links between the community and the city even further, we are inviting Brazilian professionals and entrepreneurs to this networking event, which has been organised jointly with the Brazilian Consulate General in Barcelona.

The first part of the event will consist of a presentation of resources and services by Barcelona City Council and the economic development agency, Barcelona Activa, for the Brazilian professional and entrepreneurial community. Several initiatives and projects launched by the Brazilian Consulate General will also be presented.

The next part will feature accounts from Brazilian entrepreneurs who have established themselves successfully in Barcelona. The event will be rounded off in a dynamic networking session involving all the event’s participants and attendees.

Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with other members of the Brazilian community and exchange practices and experiences.
