Market Conditions in the U.S.

U.S. companies are slashing budgets, eliminating jobs and Management is being asked to do more with less…

The pressure is on to develop new market opportunities.

Traditional markets (U.S./Europe/Asia) are struggling.

Is There an Option?

There is another market out there that has been flying under the radar for a long time.

A market that, although battered, is still seen as one of the fastest growing in the world.

Latin America

The Latin American Market

With more than 539 million consumers and boosts a combined GDP of more than $1 trillion U.S, Latin America is now the fastest growing in the world.

Market Conditions

IDC predicts a Strong IT industry in LA for 2008.

“Despite the expected economic slowdown in the U.S., global suppliers will turn their attention to emerging regions, as alternative investments to the IT spending slow down in largest countries.”

Anticipated Growth

“IT investment growth in Latin America for 2008 is expected to be 12.6% compared to the 5.5% of the U.S. or the 5.9% of Western Europe.” (Source: IDC)

OK, sounds good. What now?

You have a decision to make…

The “Columbus Factor”

We all know that America didn’t discover itself. It took a bold individual willing to risk everything. Someone who believed there were riches in a far off land. A man with conviction and a plan!

All Aboard!

Columbus’ strategic approach included a fair amount of luck. So, if the definition of Luck is where opportunity meets preparedness, are you prepared?

The reality is that most managers don’t know where to start even if they take the leap of faith.

That’s where Latin Negocio comes in…
