Latin America is an economically emerging region. Foreign investment figures from 2011 show investor confidence as well as a depth of untapped business opportunities. The briefing will show recent economic trends in this region with a focus on industry and infrastructure growth within Colombia and Mexico.

Domestic demand and favorable business environments are allowing companies to gain market share and establish themselves for short and long term positive returns within Colombia and Mexico. Projections of key investments, opportunities and growth prospects within the next five 10 years will be discussed during this presentation.

Attendees will gain a macroeconomic perspective into the Latin American region and receive economic insights into the emerging markets of Mexico and Colombia. The discussion will include growth opportunities and the competitive landscape of the burgeoning industries within these countries. A live Q&A session with the analysts will follow the webinar.

"Mexico will continue growing at modest but stable rates for the next couple of years," said Frost & Sullivan Research Manager Lorena Isla. "The growth rate would be higher if the new government speeds up structural reforms, particularly in the energy sector."

"Colombia will most likely see Latin America's second-highest GDP growth in 2012, as strong domestic demand and credit expansion drive the economy," said Frost & Sullivan Director Marcelo Ruiz. "A Free Trade Agreement between the United States and Colombia will eliminate tariffs and other barriers to U.S. exports, expand trade between these countries, and promote economic growth for both."
