Teresa Vendramini, a renowned cattle rancher and former President of the Brazilian Rural Society went to Moscow to the BRICS Women’s Entrepreneurship Forum, where she shared some insights during the panel discussion titled “BRICS and Latin American Countries: In Search of New Areas of Trade and Investment Cooperation.” She represented Brazil by highlighting the unique attributes of the Pantanal, a natural treasure that promises expansive opportunities.

The Significance of the Bioceanic Route
A pivotal theme discussed was the Bioceanic Route, an ambitious infrastructure project set to connect Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina, and Chile. This route aims to provide a direct link between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, revolutionizing trade logistics within the region. Teresa emphasized its significance, stating, “With the Bioceanic Route, we establish a quicker connection to our key export markets, promoting efficiency in trade routes and opening unprecedented opportunities for Latin American countries.”
The new route promises enhanced economic integration and the creation of job opportunities, vital for fostering sustainable growth and prosperity in Latin America. By bridging geographical divides, it facilitates a new era of trade and investment cooperation, empowering local industries and communities.
Creating Sustainable Opportunities
As the BRICS forum unfolded, Teresa Vendramini concluded with her vision for a collaborative future: “Our participation in the BRICS platform represents more than just economic alignment; it underscores our commitment to shared values and sustainable development. Through projects like the Bioceanic Route, we strengthen our alliance, aiming to uplift Latin American economies by enhancing trade efficiency and capacity.”
The BRICS Women’s Entrepreneurship Forum served as a platform for advancing dialogue on economic partnerships and creating avenues for sustainable development across Latin America. As we anticipate the realization of projects like the Bioceanic Route, new prospects for trade, investment, and growth emerge, promising a brighter future for all involved nations.
