Especificación materia tratada

Dear Sir / Madam, I hope this correspondence finds you well. Between 2013-14, International Investor developed a successful investor relations project with the last Piñera administration. Working closely with Félix de Vicente, who was Minister of the Economy, Development and Tourism at that time. We like the ease of doing business in Chile, its friendly institutions, people, stability and openness. And see this period, at the beginning of the new administration, as an opportunity for us to launch and grow a regional, Latin American office from a Chilean base. Our CEO, Cory D’Abreo will be visiting Santiago for a short period between June 7 to June 22, as part of a regional business trip to assess the country location for opening our Latin American office this year. Importantly, he aims to use this trip to meet with the leaders of key ministries and business associations to identify in what areas we would potentially collaborate again with these institutions as Chile looks to grow foreign business and investors in its economy. As well as to clarify how we can assist these kinds of efforts within the Ministry of Economy, Development and Tourism and help the Ministry achieve its investment goals. Accordingly, we request a meeting between Sr. José Ramón Valente and Mr D’Abreo, while he is in Chile, to discuss this opportunity further and its relevance to the Ministry. Our plans include collaborating on raising business awareness, using technology to find investors and establish business connections, and growing an independent and focused business relations asset for Chile. This is a significant commitment and undertaking, and it is very important for us to understand that we can establish the same strong working relationship with Sr. Valente as we had with the previous minister before making a commitment like this. It is clear the current period is crucial for Chile, particularly to broaden awareness of the government’s new agenda globally and its corresponding opportunities. So the timing is very good, as our growth plans coincide. We also had a very good experience working with the first Piñera government and so we are making Chile our first port of call to discuss this opportunity We hope we can organise a meeting in June, as we are very interested in getting the Sr. Valente’s inputs on this idea, and hearing his thoughts on how we could take things forward. Yours sincerely. Thomas Michael Edwards Executive Director
