Adewale Adenkunle, from FARA, has the following comments about the Africa Brazil LAC Agricultural Innovation Marketplace:

The first thing I would like to say is that the program has been very well organized. Given the number of people that have been invited for the program, one would have expected a level of chaos with respect to the organization. But this was not the case. The hall we use is spacious enough and well decorated on one side by flags from many nations and we also had beautiful ornamental plants to decorate the platform.

Again, I would like to appreciate the professionalism we observed with the hosts and hostesses who are always around to help people with every problem.

I was also impressed by the rapid way in which people were moved into interacting with their partners from Brazil. And this interaction continued even until late in the light and at dinner for many pairs.

I was also impressed by the high level support that the program continues to receive from the Government of Brazil.
