Doing Business in Brazil – Recap

We’re finally back in the states and I once again have a reliable internet connection. Here are some photo highlights that I missed posting:

Last Monday, our first visit was to Petrobas, Brazil’s government owned oil and gas company.

Fun fact (from wikipedia): Petrobas is the largest company in Latin America by market capitalization and revenue, and the largest company headquartered in the Southern Hemisphere by market value.

To bookend our trip, our last meeting was at Coteminas with Josué Gomes da Silva, Owen ’89. He is not only the President of Coteminas, but he is also on the board for Petrobas. This was definitely the highlight of the trip.

Fun fact: Before meeting with us, Josué had a lunch meeting with the Finance Minister of Brazil.

About Hannah Johnson

I exclusively live in cities where you can run into famous people in the airport. So after seeing the same celebs at LAX time after time, I decided to move to Nashville for a change of scenery. Here at Owen, I am hoping to land my dream job: country music singer, er, I mean, a science and technology marketing manager. Until then, I’ll train for the job by blogging, running half marathons, and wearing boots.
