We are delighted to welcome back the Rt. Hon Baroness Hooper CMG for this members-only private round-table event, in-person at our offices in 23 Grafton Street, to give members the opportunity to engage with the Trade Envoy in a closed discussion. Please arrive at 14:30 for a 15:00 start.
Rt. Hon Baroness Hooper CMG is Trade Envoy to Panama, Dominican Republic and Costa Rica.
Panama is one of the most politically and economically stable economies in the region and with plenty of opportunities in Skills Development, Infrastructure, the Maritime industry and Clean Energy it should be a priority for UK businesses.
While the Dominican Republic is known for its tourism and agricultural business it has several free trade zones which allow entrepreneurs looking to dive into the retail and commercial opportunities the region supports an obvious place to set up a regional base.
Costa Rica’s investment climate has been favourable for many years, with a large population and one of the most developed economies in Latin America several multinationals have already set up operations in this nation, however there are still opportunities for smaller UK businesses to grasp and make the most of.
The event format enables members to brief the Trade Envoy on some of their current priorities in the specific countries/region, the ease of doing business and some of the challenges encountered. The Trade Envoy will share their insights and experiences on their markets of responsibility, including key opportunities and potential G2G engagement plans which may be of interest. Places are limited so early booking is advised.
PLEASE NOTE that attendance is limited to one individual per organisation, and places are limited to ensure each attendee has the opportunity to engage directly with the Trade Envoy.
Please let us know via email if you would like to reserve a place for your organisation.
