Frederic Simard, Event Director for DISTREE Brazil, commented: “More than 700 one-on-one meetings have already been pre-scheduled between delegates at DISTREE Brazil. Hundreds more will be arranged on-site during the next two days. We thank all delegates and sponsors for their continued support of the event.”

During the past 12 months, DISTREE Brazil has reinforced its position as the leading consumer tech channel event in Brazil, attracting strong support from vendors, distributors and retailers. More than 250 delegates are confirmed to attend this week’s exclusive event.

Simard continued: “The breadth and depth of brands attending DISTREE Brazil is testament to the strength of the DISTREE model. From well-established multinationals through to new brands taking their first steps in Latin America, our clear focus on audience quality and relevance ensure business benefits and a clear return on investment (ROI) for all exhibitors.

Topics covered in this year’s programme include e-commerce trends in Brazil; analysis of the fast-growing in-country gaming market; an overview of current IT market dynamics, plus a session on the potential for drones and related products in Brazil.

Simard added: “DISTREE Brazil aims to create a community of senior executives involved in the country’s consumer technology channel. The workshops deliver an opportunity for delegates to increase their knowledge, interact with their peers and also assess new concepts and explore new business strategies.”
