Porvenir

Porvenir was established in 1991, to provide the business community with a cost-effective resource for locating and accessing timely, in-depth information on Latin America. Porvenir's principals have more than ten years experience working in Latin America on business and investment related projects with leading international investment banks and ma... nagement consulting firms.

Additionally, Porvenir has a network of support personnel and advisors in the major Latin American markets, New York, London and Silicon Valley.
