“We have been looking for the right associate agency in Brazil for some time and, after working with Zoom Out on a number of projects, we have decided to enter into this formal agreement with the team there. Our worldwide reach and experience along with Zoom Out’s market expertise in South America really is a formidable combination for our clients and those companies entering or operating in the South American markets.
Fernanda Falcão, a founding partner of Zoom Out also commented: “We are delighted to announce this strategic alliance with Fifth Ring. We have seen a marked increase in Brazilian companies looking to internationalise in recent years, for example many of our clients are now attending foreign oil and gas exhibitions and conferences and proactively seeking out opportunities to expand their networks around the world. Through this alliance we will now be able to provide stronger representation for them, wherever they operate.”
Ian Ord continued: “I firmly believe that the timing of this announcement couldn’t be better, the Brazilian energy industry is on the cusp of significant change with many companies now eyeing the opportunities that exist there. Together with Zoom Out we are ideally placed to help companies access and grow in this important market.”
