On the afternoon of September 22, the Beijing Chamber of International Commerce (BCIC) and China Trade News jointly organized the Brazil session of the “Helping Enterprises Set Sail” Partnership Event Series. Under the theme “AI-Powered Global Expansion and Deeper Engagement in South America—Harnessing Artificial Intelligence to Help Enterprises Explore New Opportunities in Brazil”, the event attracted more than 120 representatives from government agencies, diplomatic missions in China, industry associations, and export-oriented enterprises in person, while the live-stream received more than 4,000 views. Zhu Jialiang, Vice Chairman of CCPIT Beijing and Vice President & Secretary General of BCIC; Zhang Xin, Chairman of the CCPIT Converged Media Center and China Trade News Co., Ltd.; and Zhang Shaofeng, President of Bairong Yunchuang Technology Co., Ltd., addressed the event. Luiz Augusto de Castro Neves, Former Brazilian Ambassador to China and President of the Brazil-China Business Council (CEBC), delivered a video address.
During the authoritative policy interpretation session, Zhao Lijin, Deputy Director of the Market Research Department at the Academy of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, provided a detailed analysis of Brazil’s business environment, foreign investment access rules, economic and trade policies, compliance risks, and opportunities in key industries. During the thematic presentation session, Yan Xin, Vice General Manager of Bairong Yunchuang Technology Co., Ltd., and her team; Chen Huaqiao, Dean of the College of Western Languages and Cultures at Sichuan International Studies University; and Wang Lian, Head of International Business at DiDi Chuxing Technology Co., Ltd., drew on their practical experience to explore pathways for leveraging AI to support international expansion. They introduced an AI-powered legal, financial, and tax think tank product, shared experience in applying AI to improve the efficiency of professional services in Brazil, and offered practical insights into localized operations and digital transformation in the Brazilian market. During the roundtable discussion, industry representatives exchanged views on practical challenges facing enterprises going global, directly addressing issues such as localized operations, compliance and risk control, talent development, and digital transformation. During the matchmaking session, participating enterprises held face-to-face discussions with industry peers and government representatives at the product display and expert consultation areas, seeking to reach preliminary agreements on cooperation.
By integrating resources in policies, technology, data, talent, and cross-border channels, the event provided Chinese enterprises seeking to enter Brazil and other Latin American markets with comprehensive support, from preliminary assessment and management to resource matchmaking. By leveraging artificial intelligence, the event helped more Chinese innovation-driven enterprises deepen their presence in South America and further strengthened industrial, economic, and trade cooperation between China and Brazil. The Brazil session marked the launch of the “Helping Enterprises Set Sail” Partnership Event Series and the rollout of a broader overseas expansion service program. Going forward, BCIC will continue to leverage its global resource network to develop specialized overseas expansion service scenarios integrating policy interpretation, technology sharing, and resource matchmaking, supporting enterprises in expanding into international markets and contributing to Beijing’s high-standard opening-up.
