Key details
In a significant move to boost entrepreneurship and economic growth, Brazil saw the launch of the Parliamentary Front for Improving the Business Environment (FPN), aimed at fostering stronger dialogue between the productive sector and the National Congress. This initiative, strongly supported by Sindilojas-SP, intends to modernize regulations, reduce bureaucratic hurdles, and stimulate integration between public and private sectors to enhance competitiveness and investment security.
Sindilojas-SP president Mendonça Filho and vice-president Efraim Filho hailed the FPN as a strategic pathway to streamline entrepreneurship and increase employment. The multiparty and technically driven front targets reforms that will lower barriers to business, promote ongoing legislative discussions, and build greater legal security for investments.
Parallel to these federal developments, the city of Rio das Ostras actively engaged in the Connex-E 2025 event, which focused on strengthening energy development, especially within oil, gas, and sustainable energy sectors. This event, backed by the Organization of Oil Producing Municipalities, explored topics such as the future of the Campos Basin and new frameworks for managing royalties to encourage sustainable economic expansion.
Mário Max, coordinator of Economic Development and Tourism in Rio das Ostras, emphasized the necessity of strategic planning for the declining lifespan of oil fields to prepare the municipality for emerging opportunities. Mayor Carlos Augusto is pursuing efforts to revive the city’s status in the energy sector through dialogue with businesses and institutions aimed at attracting new investments and generating jobs.
Together, these federal and municipal initiatives demonstrate a concerted effort to improve Brazil's business climate—from legislative modernization at the national level to local strategic planning in key economic sectors—underpinning a more robust, sustainable economic future for the country.
