Cuban producers and exporters of medical equipment and pharmaceutical products have expressed interest in doing business in Trinidad and Tobago which they recognize to be an ideal launch pad for
accessing the wider CARICOM market.
InvesTT recently hosted 8 members of a delegation participating at TTMA’s annual Trade and Investment Convention to present them with an overview of the local business environment and to discuss possibilities for joint ventures with companies operating within the local medical industry. The meeting was arranged at short notice, with special thanks to His Excellency, Ambassador Moreno, the Cuban Ambassador to Port-of-Spain. Leading the delegation was Mr. Alex Gonzalez Garcia, First Secretary of the Embassy of the Republic of Cuba.
Most of the delegation represented Cuban companies engaged in the production and export of pharmaceutical drugs and medical devices, including bio-tech drugs, radiopharmaceutical drugs, medical equipment such as electrical simulators and services such as software for the detection, diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the neurophysiologic system.
