Trade Mission to Brazil & Chile

In December 2009, FlowSense joined over 30 Minnesotan business delegates from various trades and headed to Brazil and Chile. This trip was a great way for us to reconnect with old friends, explore opportunities in new countries, cultivate successful networks with new acquaintances, and was great local PR within our community.

“One who does not look ahead remains behind” - Brazilian Proverb
