Does your packaging already meet the EU's new requirements?

The European Union has introduced the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), a framework designed to cut waste and push the market toward more recyclable and reusable materials. The rules are already in force and are being phased in gradually, reaching anyone who places packaging on the EU market, including companies exporting from Brazil to Ireland.

For businesses in the Brazil Ireland corridor, this is exactly the kind of shift worth watching closely, since it can touch labelling, materials and compliance timelines.

Moments like this are where being part of a connected community pays off. Inside BICC, questions turn into conversations, whether with a Strategic or Sector Advisor or with another member who has already been through it.

Another strong Business Roundtable is behind us!

We came together yesterday for "From Community to Commerce: Turning Ireland's Brazilian Presence into Bilateral Opportunity," bringing our members together for a morning of insight and connection.

The conversation reinforced something we already knew. Brazilians are one of the largest international communities in Ireland, and the opportunity to turn that presence into stronger bilateral trade and collaboration has never been clearer.

A special thank you to Edward Stanley and the team at IBAT Dublin for hosting us and providing such a welcoming space for this conversation to happen. We are also grateful to our panelists, Rachel Hanna (DFAT), Eduardo Gonzaga (Leevin Group) and John Coleman (JC Mortgages), for sharing their experience and insight with the room.

Moments like this are what BICC exists to create. Spaces where members can connect, exchange knowledge and build the relationships that turn community into commerce.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to another meaningful step in building the Brazil Ireland corridor.

More events are already on the way, and we stay tuned for what's next in building this corridor together.

What does it really take to build a business from the ground up in Dublin?

Sometimes the best insight comes from the professionals who help entrepreneurs get it right from day one. In this episode of Quick BICC, we sat down with Martin Moloney, founder of MP Moloney , a boutique law practice in Dublin City Centre focused on business law, property law and regulation.

Martin shared quick, honest answers about his career and his approach to the business, giving a glimpse into how direct and thoughtful he is when it comes to helping new businesses start on solid ground.

This is exactly the kind of expertise BICC brings closer to its community. Real professionals, real experience, and real value for anyone building something new between Brazil and Ireland.

🎬 More Quick BICC episodes are on the way.

How do you keep your team engaged, and how do you keep costs under control?

These two questions sit at the centre of daily operations for many companies in Ireland, especially as retention and efficiency become harder to balance.

🇧🇷 Brazil is strengthening its strategy to diversify into new international markets.

Following additional U.S. tariffs on Brazilian exports, ApexBrasil has announced a R$130 million plan — to be launched in August — aimed at reducing dependence on the U.S. market and opening new export destinations. The initiative will be carried out in partnership with 57 industry associations, representing around 2,400 exporting companies.

According to ApexBrasil President Laudemir Müller, this marks a shift in approach:

"The expansion into other markets is something we already do. What we're going to work on now is diversification — a new perspective on new opportunities shaped by a new international trade landscape."

The numbers already point to results: Brazilian exports grew by US$10.5 billion to China, US$3.1 billion to the EU, and US$2.5 billion to India over the past year. Brazil also closed the year as the 5th largest global destination for foreign direct investment, attracting US$77 billion — a 22% increase.

🇮🇪 For the Brazil–Ireland business community, this is a particularly relevant moment.

As Brazilian companies look beyond traditional markets, Ireland stands out as a strategic gateway to the EU — combining a dynamic business environment, a strong innovation ecosystem, and direct access to the European single market.

At BICC, we see this as further reason to strengthen the ties between Brazilian and Irish companies. By connecting businesses, institutions and decision-makers on both sides, we help turn moments like this into lasting commercial partnerships.
