BICC · BRAZIL-IRELAND CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

Why the Brazil–Ireland corridor matters now

The corridor is entering a new phase of strategic relevance, and the conditions behind it are firmly in place.

Brazilians living and working in Ireland

The EU-Mercosur Interim Trade Agreement has been provisionally applied since 1 May 2026, opening new opportunities for trade, investment and business collaboration, and bilateral commerce and the movement of companies between Brazil and Ireland already move around €2.2 billion a year, with the agreement set to eliminate tariffs of 14-18% in sectors including pharmaceuticals and medical instruments.

​

Brazil is Latin America and the Caribbean's leading startup ecosystem with 19 unicorns, while in Ireland a Brazilian community of more than 80,000 is living, working, building businesses and putting down roots.

The opportunity is real, yet what is missing for many organisations is trusted access to it.

That is what BICC exists to provide, as an independent bilateral chamber connecting businesses, institutions and people across the Brazil-Ireland corridor and creating the access, intelligence and relationships that turn bilateral potential into commercial outcomes.

WHY ORGANISATIONS JOIN BICC

A chamber built for commercial outcomes on the corridor

BICC is built to help organisations navigate the corridor more effectively, connecting them with the right people, relevant market intelligence and opportunities aligned with their objectives.

01

Trusted & Credible

02

Curated, not generic

03

Human & accessible

Our network, introductions and events are curated to preserve quality, building an environment defined by professionalism, relevance and trust.

Every introduction, event and connection is chosen with purpose, putting the right people in the right room rather than running mass networking.

Institutional in scope and personal in practice, because relationships are how the corridor actually moves.

BICC brings together businesses, government, academia and institutional stakeholders across both countries, creating a trusted environment in which commercial relationships can develop.
