An Industry Federation that Promotes Sustainable Amazon Business and Innovation
Marcelo Thomé da Silva de Almeida: Today we discuss developing industry in the Amazon. In November, 2020, hundreds of people from science, business, government, civil society and other sectors gathered online for AMAZÔNIA +21, a new online forum dedicated to advancing sustainable development across the Amazon. Pioneered by the Port Velho Development Agency, the forum has 4 themes: Sustainable Business, Culture, Funding and Science & Innovation. Independent of government and politics, the forum will expand with support from the Rondonia State Industry Federation and many others. What is next? Who is involved? What opportunities exist for ongoing learning and collaboration with this unique network? Join the conversation with Marcelo Thomé da Silva de Almeida, President of the Rondonia State Industry Federation.
