Latin Americaβs success stories
Blueberries, hydro and nearshoring - we look at the regions and sectors where the economy is doing well.
Across the region, there are examples of economic success stories: countries, companies and people that are getting things right, transforming their local economies and bringing prosperity to the region.
We go to Peru, where fruit producers are enjoying a blueberry boom.
We hear from Uruguay, which generates almost all its electricity from renewable energy, and we visit a factory Mexico thatβs benefiting from βnearshoringβ and the countryβs proximity to the United States.
We talk to two female entrepreneurs β one from Chile and one from Colombia β on how the ecosystem for start-ups has evolved in their countries and the exciting possibilities the region has to offer.
Produced and presented by Gideon Long
