There is some big news that Brazil is set to invest £9.5bn in infrastructure in hosting the Fifa World Cup in 2014 and the 2016 Olympic Games.
After Rio de Janeiro was announced as the 2016 Olympic Games host city last Friday, the country anticipates a rise in the number of congresses and corporate events in summing up all these sporting events, and a 15% increase in overall number of visitors.
Brazil Tourist Office Director Glauco Chris Fuzinatto said: "It is fantastic news. Infrastructure and accommodation need to be redeveloped and increased, but Brazil has a very good infrastructure for conference and incentive travel events."
The Brazil Tourist Office is also targeting UK buyers with a travel-trade fam trip called Destination Brazil Showcase for 40 UK leisure and corporate travel organisers by end of November.
