One Business Season advances Brazil and UAE cooperation in a meeting with President Lula

Economic diplomacy is no longer the preserve of governments alone. Increasingly, the future of global commerce is shaped by business leaders, international organisations and strategic partnerships working alongside the public sector. It was in that spirit that One Business Season took part in a high-level meeting at the Presidency of the Republic of Brazil with President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

One Business Season was represented by Mrs. Martha Bello, President of the São Paulo Chapter, together with members of the Board of Directors. The meeting marked an important step toward strengthening international cooperation and exploring new opportunities for economic development, investment facilitation, innovation, trade and sustainable partnerships between Brazil and the United Arab Emirates.

Building bridges between Brazil and the UAE

The discussions underlined the growing role of One Business Season as a trusted global platform connecting governments, investors, entrepreneurs, chambers of commerce and industry leaders across continents. Particular emphasis was placed on expanding cooperation between the United Arab Emirates, One Business Season and the Office of H.H. Sheikh AbdulHakim Al Maktoum, together with Al Maktoum Group Holdings FZC, in pursuit of initiatives that support innovation, entrepreneurship, economic diversification and international investment.
