Portugal Key Sectors Briefing with US Ambassador Randi Levine and Dilawar Syed, Special Representative for Commercial and Business Affairs
Event Description
Please join us for an opportunity to engage with the U.S. Ambassador to Portugal Randi Levine and Dilawar Syed, the Special Representative for Commercial and Business Affairs at the State Department.
Special Representative Syed recently returned from a visit to Portugal where he discussed commercial opportunities for U.S. companies. The government of Portugal is keen to expand opportunities for U.S. companies to push back against a recent tide of state-backed foreign investment from third countries including China and Russia.
The Ambassador and Special Representative are eager to connect with U.S. companies in several key sectors, including lithium mining and refining, renewable energy including offshore wind and hydrogen, shipping, and port infrastructure.
This conversation will be an opportunity for member companies to meet with key U.S. government representatives in Portugal, and to learn more about potential upcoming commercial opportunities. Special Representative Syed is planning similar engagements in other markets.
