WISeKey and Brasilinvest Present Brazilian Hub Integrating Internet and Energy Sectors at the Sustainable Development Forum in New York
NEW YORK, September 28, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
The 2011 Sustainable Development Forum gathered dignitaries and experts
- including a special session with President Bill Clinton - Monday at the
Harvard Club in New York. Conference organizer and Chairman of Brasilinvest
Mario Garnero took the opportunity to announce the appointment of panelists
Carlos Moreira and Phillipe Douste-Blazy, panel chair Cristina
Valls-Taberner, and attendee Manuel Garcia-Duran to the Brasilinvest Board
of Directors, Brazil's pioneer merchant bank.
For the forum's third year, leaders discussed with optimism "Brazil: The
New Global Green Economy", examining the opportunities open to Brazil with
the special focus thanks to events like the Olympics and World Cup. Carlos
Moreira, Founder and CEO of WISeKey, explains that to protect its
environment, Brazil will need to create a highly efficient Internet-based
network that connects wirelessly to distribute power without wasting it.
According to Mr. Moreira, Brazil is ideally situated to become a pillar
supporting the massive Internet cloud infrastructure that will be needed to
foster sustainable economic growth in the region for years to come.
"The next truly disruptive tech company will be from Brazil and will
unite the Internet and alternative energy sectors," said Mr. Moreira.
WISeKey created a joint venture with Brasilinvest to participate in the
emerging Internet energy trading market.
Mr. Garnero, who is recognized as the father of the bio-ethanol
revolution, said, "Combining the Brazilian energy and know-how with state of
the art Swiss technology of WISeKey will be the first two pillars to achieve
this objective."
