As COP30 approaches, Belém, Pará, is poised to become the epicenter of the global climate agenda. With over R$1.3 billion in planned investments in the capital of Pará, the city is becoming a symbol of Brazil's ecological transition and a showcase for sustainable business opportunities for the world. At the same time, the BRICS countries are raising their voices and demanding fulfillment of the promised US$1.3 trillion in climate finance by 2030, a topic that promises to dominate the summit's debates.
Brazil in the spotlight: climate and economic leadership
Brazil not only hosts the event but also positions itself as a key interlocutor in global climate negotiations. With 60% of Amazonian territory and a predominantly renewable energy matrix, the country attracts the attention of investors, governments, and multilateral institutions seeking sustainable solutions and strategic natural assets.
Structural investments: legacy of COP30
Belém's preparation includes modernizing urban, digital, and tourism infrastructure, with financial support from the PAC and international organizations such as the IDB. The plan includes:
- Duplication and revitalization of main avenues;
- Requalification of cultural and tourist spaces;
- Expansion of the hotel and urban mobility network;
- Creation of environmental monitoring and climate innovation centers.
BRICS and climate finance: time for action
Meeting in Moscow, the BRICS environment ministers were emphatic: climate finance is a historic debt owed by developed countries. The group reiterated the target of US$1.3 trillion by 2030 and pushed for fairer mechanisms for accessing these resources. This demand aligns with the challenges faced by developing countries like Brazil, which must balance environmental conservation and economic growth.
Opportunities for international business and strategic partnerships
For BRING, this scenario represents fertile ground for:
- Public-private partnerships focused on green infrastructure;
- Renewable energy, circular economy and green hydrogen projects;
- International cooperation in environmental technologies and resilient cities;
- Business missions and attraction of foreign direct investment (FDI).
COP30 as a catalyst for a new economy
Belém will not only host this major event; it will also mark a historic turning point in Brazil's positioning in climate diplomacy and global sustainable development. More than just an event, COP30 represents a strategic platform to reinforce the country's position as a leader in high-value environmental solutions.
