PROJECTS OF INTEREST

TRANSFER OF KNOWLEDGE and OUTREACH TO FOREIGN MARKETS
The spirit of signing agreements with similar entities is to gain "know-how" from long-standing institutions with an important number of companies and great exporting capacity. Likewise, we trust that a strengthening of institutional ties can contribute to building up the necessary corporate confidence to materialize exports from our member companies.
