Trade and Investment Opportunities in Latin America

Trade Promotion Council of India organised a webinar on the topic “Trade & Investment Opportunities in the Latin American region” on 15th June 2021.

Over the years, Latin America has become a key region of interest in India’s foreign policy. It is well acknowledged by policy makers and businesses on both sides that there is immense untapped potential in the bilateral relationship. On a positive note, business relations between India and Latin America have been on a steady growth path over the past few years, as they increasingly explore opportunities to leverage mutual synergies in terms of trade, investment and even market access.
