The UK’s Department for Business & Trade (DBT) invites you to join this trade mission to explore export opportunities in Argentina and Uruguay. Both have sophisticated and import-reliant MedTech markets, with opportunities across a wide variety of subsectors. Local standards are aligned with CE/FDA markings and the UK offer has a strong reputation.
With a population of 47M people, Argentina is the 2nd largest economy in South America after Brazil, and one of the leading markets in LATAM for medical devices. Uruguay is a 3.5M people market with a strong appetite for high quality devices.
The country has positioned itself as a gateway to the region, which is underpinned by its strategic location, financial benefits and political and macroeconomic stability.
This mission provides a unique opportunity to access expanding MedTech sectors in both countries.
The mission will run from 15 – 18 October, spending the first day in Buenos Aires and the final two days in Montevideo.
What the mission offers:
• Organisation of the programme;
