Please join us for the 1^st Annual Doing Business with the BRICS Conference in Washington, DC. Given that the BRICS nations encompass 25 percent of the world's territory and 40 percent of the world’s population, it is estimated that there will be a shift in global economic power away from the developed G7 economies towards the developing world. It is estimated that BRIC economies will overtake G7 economies by 2027. These new developments demand new business relations between the BRICS and the United States, as there are a lot of new business opportunities to explore among these nations. As new high tech projects are being developed and former obstacles to trade being removed, BRICS nations are poised to develop new opportunities for commerce and investment.

Panels will address vital topics of business, trade, energy and finance. There will be new opportunities from the privatization of Russia's top energy companies and other enterprises. The Conference will include presentations on energy and natural resources, high technology, mergers and acquisitions, economic development and public support for investments. How each BRICS nation contributes to this new growth cycle is especially important for future development. This will be an important conference following the BRICS Conference, March 26-27 in Durban, South Africa.

This event will allow you and your colleagues to interact with those officials from Russia, India, China, Brazil and South Africa seeking to expand trade, direct investments, business opportunities and open communication. Russia's WTO accession and other important commercial developments among the BRICS will stimulate new growth. Along with officials from the BRIC nations, there will executives from US corporations and representatives of US Government agencies including the Departments of Commerce and State.
