International Articulation Secretary

Juliano Froehner

The Secretary

We, at the International Articulation Secretariat (SAI), are ready to receive demands at the international level regarding the state of Santa Catarina. Focused on marketing and publicity, we work with Foreign Trade and attracting investments.
.
We receive companies interested in investing and generating jobs and support those that are already installed. To this end, we offer information on the State Government’s program to attract investments and encourage new business – InvestSC, among other services.
.
We maintain frequent contact with Embassies and Consulates, present, in large part, in signatures signed by Governor Jorginho Mello and by the State, such as terms, agreements, partnership agreements, memorandums of understanding and contracts with nations that wish to encourage Santa Catarina.
.
We promote events, guide and coordinate activities that represent the administrative interests of the State and, when requested, of the 295 Municipalities and of Santa Catarina society, before diplomatic representations and international issues. We also participate in national and international events in search of visibility and investments for the State.
.
We work with new and unprecedented projects, promoting engagement in academia and society as a whole.

With this approach, we are protagonists in the South of Brazil and we are open to dialogue. Come chat with us!
