RIYADH: The Kingdom and Brazil have signed a partnership agreement to use smart Saudi digital technology in tree planting in the Brazilian city of Jatai, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Tuesday.
The deal is sponsored by the Kingdom’s Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture and the Brazilian government.
It was agreed during MEWA’s participation in the G20 Young Entrepreneurs’ Alliance Summit in the Brazilian city of Goiania earlier this month, hosted by the National Federation of Young Entrepreneurs in Brazil.
The agreement is a turning point in international cooperation on preserving the environment, achieving sustainable development, and developing entrepreneurship, the SPA said.
It will contribute to stimulating the exchange of knowledge and technology and the transfer of expertise between the Kingdom and Brazil, enhancing their joint capability in reducing carbon emissions while strengthening strategic partnerships to develop and implement joint projects that promote sustainable development, in line with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030.
The ministry’s participation at the summit was represented by a number of entrepreneurship programs in the sector, and affiliated emerging companies.
Ali bin Mohammed Al-Sabhan, the director general of the General Department of Entrepreneurship at the ministry’s Research and Innovation Agency, said that such international participation was an example of MEWA’s efforts to support and empower entrepreneurs and emerging companies in its sectors.
It aims to continue working with member states to discuss ways of joint cooperation and exchange of expertise and knowledge, to enhance the development of the entrepreneurship system in the ministry’s sectors in particular, and the Kingdom in general, he added.
