The Brazil-Canada Chamber of Commerce BCCC was delighted to welcome Ambassador Ênio Cordeiro, the new Consul General of Brazil in Toronto, during his first meeting with the BCCC's Co-Chairs, Peter Hawkins and Daniel Ricica. Ambassador Cordeiro has a long history of diplomatic service for Brazil as Ambassador to Norway, Ambassador to Mexico, Undersecretary-General for Economic and Financial Affairs, Ministry of External Relations, and Ambassador to Argentina, as well as many roles in the Ministry of External Relations, including Director General for South America covering Mercosul, Unasul and Celac and more. The relationship between the BCCC and the Consulate in Toronto has always been strong. With his extensive international experience, we are looking forward to creating greater opportunities for Canada-Brazil relations in the future. We were happy to share this meeting with our BCCC partner, the Brazil Canada Bar Association, at the offices of KPMG Canada. #bccc #consulate #brazil #canada

BCCC Brazil-Canada Chamber of Commerce reposted this
Os minerais críticos para a transição energética tem sido especialmente escrutinizados quanto à sua adequação às melhores práticas socioambientais internacionais e padrões ESG/direitos humanos. A Proactiva Results, a convite da BCCC Brazil-Canada Chamber of Commerce, participou do evento Brazil Lithium Summit que aconteceu nos dias 12 e 13 de junho em Belo Horizonte, representada por Clara Jayme. O evento, que contou com participantes de diversas nacionalidades, tratou da relevância do lítio como recurso essencial para o avanço na transição energética e das oportunidades do cenário brasileiro, tanto em relação às suas reservas de lítio, quanto em relação à mão de obra qualificada, tecnologia disponível, valores para exploração e agilidade de licenciamento. A menção ao Brasil ainda estar inexplorado, ainda que o Vale do Jequitinhonha tenha alcançado relevante destaque, denota a ampla margem de oportunidades de mercado para o mineral no Brasil. A Proactiva Results está preparada para apoiar as empresas no mercado de lítio e outros minerais no avanço de questões estratégicas relacionadas a ESG e Direitos Humanos, para atuação de maneira sustentável e utilização dos melhores padrões ESG disponíveis globalmente. #brazillithium #lithium #litio #esg #direitoshumanos #humanrights #edh
