Finland - Brazil Night for Ambitious Climate Action

The Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland and Business Finland warmly invite you to the Finland-Brazil Night for Ambitious Climate Action. In the spirit of the COP30 in Belém, this will be an exclusive reception that gathers leaders, innovators, and visionaries to explore opportunities for collaboration on climate action initiatives across the globe. 

The event aims to:

• Provide visibility to innovative and effective climate solutions developed among Finland, Brazilian, and other global stakeholders.

• Promote a high-level networking environment for climate leaders, partners, and negotiators.

• Foster collaboration between Finnish and international institutions to accelerate joint climate efforts.

Join us at the beautifully renovated São Brás Market, one of Belém’s most iconic landmarks, to toast new ideas with Finnish Climate Koskenkorva vodka, move to the beat of carimbó dance, and enjoy a touch of Finnish artistry.
