Sapiens Global was proud to support Dongguan Sister City Link 2021, an event connecting eight cities in six countries, three continents. The event, last July 30, 2021, presented more than 70 people attending the Investment & Trade Promotion Webinar. Sapiens Global was represented by its CEO Helio Galvão Ciffoni and Jocemar Medeiros, Director for New Business Promotion (Latin America).
Among the cities, two of them were invited and promoted by Sapiens Global: Maringá (Brazil) and Barcelos (Portugal). ACIM – Associação Comercial e Empresarial de Maringá and ACIB – Associação Comercial e Industrial de Barcelos promoted some of their most important local companies. Sapiens Global would like to thank the fabulous efforts of Marcos Cordiolli, Secretary of Economic Development and Innovation from Maringá, Helmer Romero, Director of Tourism at the City of Maringá and Mayor Ulisses Maia, who presented us with a valuable vision of the City and the planning for the years to come. Maringá, along with Barcelos and Dongguan, are part of the 3C3C Alliance, a platform developed by Sapiens Global to develop business and cultural interchange, among the 3C3C – Three Cities, Three Continents.

3C3C – Three Cities, Three Continents

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).
