Feb. 15, 2013 - PRLog -- Exploring the UK & Canada's Current and Emerging Markets

Learn about new business opportunities between Canada and the Pacific Alliance
(Chile, Colombia, Peru and Mexico)

Organized by the British Canadian Chamber of Trade & Commerce and the Toronto Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, this event will give investors an overview of opportunities to develop business with the new Pacific Alliance (Alianza del Pacífico - Chile, Colombia, Peru, Mexico).

The Pacific Alliance was launched in April 2011 to facilitate the free movement of goods, services, capital and people among member countries and to strengthen trade and investment ties with Asia. Canada already has comprehensive bilateral free trade agreements with each of the four countries in the Alliance, and is engaged in negotiations with Chile, Mexico and Peru through the Trans-Pacific Partnership to conclude a 21st-century trade agreement that will bridge the Americas and Asia.

Special Guests:

Juan Antonio Figueroa, Trade Commissioner, Trade Commission of Chile
