The establishment of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Brazil in the Netherlands

In the quest to strengthen trade ties and promote business exchange between Brazil and the Netherlands, three visionary entrepreneurs, Luiz de Barros, Joquebede Mesquita, and Adwin Van Dijke, joined forces to establish the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Brazil in the Netherlands - Chambraz. This groundbreaking initiative was born with a mission to enhance bilateral relations and facilitate the activities of Brazilian companies in the Netherlands and vice versa. The three entrepreneurs consciously chose to organize this Chamber of Commerce as an association. All members of the association work together to realize opportunities for entrepreneurs and investors in the Netherlands and Brazil.

Luiz de Barros, a Brazilian with extensive experience in international trade, has always believed in the potential of expanding Brazilian companies into Europe and especially the Netherlands. Aware of the opportunities and challenges that companies and entrepreneurs face when internationalizing their operations, he conceived the idea of establishing an institution that would catalyse mutual growth.

Together with Joquebede Mesquita, a Brazilian entrepreneur who had businesses in both the Netherlands and Brazil, Luiz found the ideal partner for this ambitious project. Joquebede possesses in-depth knowledge of the Dutch market and understands the local specifics, which proved crucial for plans to establish a trade and industry chamber that truly caters to the needs of Brazilian companies looking to expand into this region.

However, the actual consolidation of the Chamber came with the arrival of Adwin Van Dijke, a Dutch entrepreneur with a strong sense of international collaboration and experience in Brazil. Adwin strongly believes in the potential of collaboration between Brazil and the Netherlands and saw the establishment of Chambraz as an opportunity to promote knowledge exchange, technology, and expertise between the two countries.

After numerous discussions, debates, and planning, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Brazil in the Netherlands - Chambraz was officially founded. The institution's primary objectives were to support and represent the commercial and industrial interests of Brazilian and Dutch companies, promote the development of strategic partnerships, share relevant market information, organize networking events, and promote business missions.

The story of the association Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Brazil in the Netherlands - Chambraz is an inspiration for other entrepreneurs looking to promote the growth of their companies across national borders. Through collaboration and knowledge sharing, it is possible to build bridges between countries, strengthen the global economy, and drive business success.
