BRICS Business Forum 2021
Virtual, 16-18 August, 2021

ABOUT BRICS BUSINESS FORUM

Established in 2010, the BRICS Business Forum generally meets on the eve of the Summits, with a view to expanding and diversifying trade and mutual investments through the identification of new business opportunities.

The BRICS Business Council was established at the fifth BRICS Summit in Durban, South Africa in 2013. Since then, the BRICS Business Forum is one of the key events organized under the aegis of the BRICS Business Council. Last year, due to COVID-19 pandemic, for the first time, the BRICS Business Forum was held via video conference.

This year forum will have discussion on the issues of expanding relations in key areas of cooperation and work out joint recommendations for strengthening trade and economic relations within the BRICS in the backdrop of COVID-19 pandemic
