Show Notes

The first of a series of 3 podcasts on Santa Catarina with the opening episode delving into PPP opportunities in the southern state of Brazil where they have ambitious plans to deploy the procurement model.

In an impromptu podcast, IJGlobal editorial director Angus Leslie Melville talks to 4 mayors from around the state… all of whom have plans to deploy PPP. Thanks once again to IJ colleague Albert Negron for his invaluable translation services.

The podcast was recorded at PPP Americas – the Inter American Development Bank conference staged last week in Panama – that focuses on infrastructure investment across Latin America and the Caribbean.

The 4 mayors a-speaking are:

  • Aquilles da Costa – mayor of the city of Peňa
  • Marcos Pedro Veber – mayor of Luiz Alves
  • Elcio Rogério Kuhnen – mayor of Camboriú
  • Paulo Henrique Dalago Muller – mayor of Bombinhas, also rotating president for AMFRI (Associação dos Municípios da Região da Foz do Rio Itajaí (AMFRI)
