Thomas Van Heugen, our Head of Sales, took part in the Belgian economic mission to Brazil, led by HRH Princess Astrid of Belgium and organized by AWEX.
An opportunity, but also a challenge for Thomas to represent us among Wallonia’s most innovative companies.
Some highlights ⬇️
- Visit to Helibras (Airbus helicopter division).
- Visit to the Hospital Albert Einstein, faced with colossal volumes of data – a challenge our tools are already solving for our customers.
- Meeting with Leonardo Aleixo de Oliveira, Latin America Director of Coface, a credit insurance specialist.
- Meeting with Embraer, a leader in civil and military aviation, where synergies similar to those developed with Safran are possible.
- Meeting with Fiocruz (research center), for whom our GIS technologies can help them map medical data to better control epidemics.
- Meeting with Rudinei Carapinheiro, director of IPV7, interested in our predictive modeling tool, Modeler, to complete their offer.
In conclusion, this mission reinforced our conviction that we can bring real added value to these key sectors in which Brazil is investing heavily.
We are proud to have been selected among the best Walloon companies to represent our region’s expertise.
Many thanks to Wallonia Export & Investment Agency, Agência Valã para a Exportação e para os Investimentos Estrangeiros (AWEX) to Laurent Bernard, Olivia Timmers, Rodrigo dos SANTOS A. GARCIA, and Karelle Lambert for this opportunity.
