THE SA Chapter of the BRICS BUSINESS COUNCIL invites South African companies to participate in
the upcoming BRICS Virtual Trade Fair, which promises to be the most prestigious and the largest
platform for companies from across BRICS countries to meet and network with their counterparts.
A lot has changed around us globally. The pandemic has impacted every sphere of human activity and
most of us are still navigating through the challenges of the new normal. There is a lot to learn, and
look forward to, with renewed spirit and passion. As the world presses the reset button, there is a
need to create opportunities to bring businesses back to normal.
The sprawling virtual Exhibition Centre plays host to investment promotion agencies and exhibitors
from across the BRICS nations, giving them a productive landscape to showcase their products and
capabilities, project their achievements, and engage in discussions to advance their business
prospects. While the well-appointed booths allow virtual handshakes through video, audio and text
chat, the B2B meeting rooms transform business relationships. The state-of-art auditorium is fully
equipped to host large-format webinars and conferences, thus providing a world-class environment
for global business.
