Opportunities and Limitations For Biotechnology Innovation In Brazil

Brazil has emerged as a significant financial and industrial power in recent times. Brazil is poised to become a significant player in the field of biotechnology, internationally, by taking advantage of circumstances not available in other countries, particularly its native biodiversity. This will, in turn, have an effect on commercial and entrepreneurial opportunities in the region.Topics covered in this text include adjustments that must be made in the regulatory framework to assure the success of business investment.
