Expectations for 2013

Britcham’s management and different committees are committed to identifying issues of particular interest to our members and the British community as a whole. Despite intense competition from other organisations, during the course of last year events held by the British Chamber of Commerce attracted much interest from our target audience, and I am sure we will succeed in repeating that achievement in 2013.

Although we are still discussing some of the strategies for the coming year, the core points are as follows:

i) Maintain last year’s goal of focusing on larger-scale events, always addressing themes of relevance to Brazil/UK relations; and
ii) Take advantage of the recent London Olympics to organise events for the sharing of experiences between Brazil and the UK.

Lastly, I would like to take this opportunity to invite all members to contribute their own ideas and suggestions for events and/or projects to be organised by Britcham RJ.
