A new platform for cultural interchange and innovation in trade was created by Sapiens Global, connecting the cities of Barcelos (Portugal), Dongguan (China) and Maringá (Brazil). A Chinese mission with 15 people met 15 Portuguese and 5 Brazilian entrepreneurs in Barcelos. From June 10th to 12th, the government representatives of the three cities and the entrepreneurs discussed trading, tourism and technology development. About 16 business opportunities are under development by Sapiens Global, along with DYEA (Dongguan Young Entrepreneurs Association), ACIB (Associação Comercial e Industrial de Barcelos) and CODESUL (Agência de Integração e Desenvolvimento do Sul do Brasil).
