The Low Carbon Business Action in Brazil (LCBAB) is a European-funded initiative that aims at engaging Small and Medium-sized Enterprises from Europe with Brazilian companies, supporting them build new partnerships and to implement low carbon technology in business initiatives in Brazil.
The LCBAB will approve and give financial support through technical assistance services to around to 80 selected projects. Those projects will need Services Providers to aid with the successful implementation in the Brazilian market.
We believe this to be a business opportunity for your organization or your associates; hence, we invite you to register as a Service Provider in our website. Only registered and homologated providers will be able to provide services to the selected projects and have access to the financial aid provided by the EU.
The registration can be done as “Legal Entity”, as well as “Individual”. Registration and it should be made online directly on our website at the “PROVIDERS” session or click here to access the page directly.
