Brazilian businesses exploring China
Introduce your product or service, sector and the type of counterpart you seek. A distributor discussion, an industrial partnership and a technical visit require different preparation.

Entering a market, finding counterparts and presenting a project are different challenges. CBCNECI, the Brazil–China New Era Chamber of Commerce and Innovation, helps organise connections between businesses, institutions and regions. Start with the objective you want to achieve.

1. Define the outcome you seek
Turn a broad intention, such as doing business with China, into a concrete question: understand a market, introduce a solution, find counterparts or explore cooperation. This helps determine the format of the discussion.
2. Make your project understandable
Prepare a brief introduction covering what your organisation does, the problem it addresses, what is already available and what you expect from the other party. Indicate your working languages and existing materials.
3. Choose the type of agenda
An exploratory meeting helps assess possibilities; a technical visit offers insight into an operation; a mission brings together meetings with defined objectives. The Chamber reviews the request and discusses possible counterparts and forms of support.
4. Give meetings continuity
Record the topics discussed, responsibilities and agreed next steps. An agenda also creates value through what follows: materials shared, questions answered and conversations taken forward.
What to include in your first contact
A focused introduction helps us understand the request before arranging a meeting. You do not need every answer to start.
- Organisation name, city, country and the person responsible for contact.
- Product, service, sector or project you wish to present.
- Your objective in Brazil or China and the type of counterpart you seek.
- Current stage: idea, study, existing operation or expansion.
- Relevant timelines and languages available for the discussion.
- An institutional presentation or public material explaining the initiative.

Before contacting the Chamber
What does a Brazil–China chamber do?
CBCNECI works in institutional relations, trade, investment, innovation, infrastructure, regional development and missions. Support begins by understanding the request and organising dialogue suited to the project.
Can I present an initiative still under study?
Yes. Explain its current stage, what has been defined and the questions that need discussion. An initial idea and an established operation require different next steps; this distinction helps guide the conversation.
How can I organise a business mission to China?
Before selecting meetings, define the objective, participant profiles, sectors of interest and possible dates. The Chamber can discuss agenda preparation and institutional support according to the request and counterpart availability.
Does the Chamber guarantee contracts or investment?
CBCNECI is a non-profit civil association that connects parties and organises agendas. Contracts, investments and approvals depend on the parties and competent authorities. The format and conditions of support are discussed for each project.
Bring an objective. Let us explore the path.
CBCNECI maintains a presence in Rio de Janeiro, Shanghai, Hunan, Shenzhen and Beijing. Learn about the institution, explore its services and introduce your initiative through the official contact channel.
