Market description and investments
Brazil has around 5,500 cities and villages with 250 cities with more than 100,000 inhabitants. In these cities and villages the large majority of people live in apartments with little or no private outdoor space. Taking into account the social culture and the mostly tropical climate one can imagine, life in Brazil takes place outside; in the streets, parks, squares and on the beaches!
Brazilian cities have many squares, parks and recreational areas for people to meet. The country has an enormous coast line of 7,491 km, with many boulevards. Football and other sports are an integral part of Brazilian culture.
The economic growth of recent years has made cleanliness and public order a key issue for municipalities in Brazil. The rapidly growing population and number of cars as well as the upcoming 2014 FIFA World Cup and 2016 Olympic Games will increase the importance of clean, orderly and safe cities over the coming years as local authorities will spend a substantial amount of money on urban development over the coming years.
Expo Urbano is the chance to meet the decision-makers and influencers in the area of urban planning, design and maintenance.
