EU-Paraguay Investment Forum 2025 to Foster Economic Partnerships

Asunción: The EU Global Gateway strategy is making significant strides in Paraguay, with initial projects already underway, setting a precedent and creating an encouraging environment for future endeavors. The upcoming EU-Paraguay Investment Forum 2025 is designed to forge new partnerships between the European Union and Paraguay by connecting investment projects in Paraguay with EU investors, funders, and partners.

According to European Union, the forum’s primary objective is to enhance European investment and trade with Paraguay by enabling high-level dialogue, strengthening trade partnerships, and generating opportunities aligned with the Global Gateway’s key priorities. The event is being organized in collaboration with the Investment and Export Network (REDIEX) of Paraguay’s Ministry of Industry and Commerce and the EU Delegation in Paraguay.

Scheduled to take place at the Central Bank of Paraguay Institute in Asunción, the forum will run from June 24 to June 25, 2025. The sessions will be held in both Spanish and English, with simultaneous interpretation available for all presentations and Q&A segments.

Paraguay presents a wealth of investment opportunities due to its political and economic stability and a business-friendly environment. Recent upgrades in Paraguay’s investment ratings by international agencies, coupled with government incentives for foreign investments, make it an attractive destination. The country’s strategic location among major Latin American markets and its expanding sustainable value chains in forestry, energy, and transportation sectors add to its appeal. The EU-MERCOSUR Association Agreement is expected to further enhance Paraguay’s export potential.

The forum has been declared of National Tourist Interest by the National Secretariat of Tourism (SENATUR), highlighting Paraguay’s position as a reliable destination for sustainable investments. Interest in the event has been expressed by around 25 countries, including Argentina, Germany, the United States, and Taiwan, among others.

Participants in the EU-Paraguay Investment Forum 2025 will have the chance to engage with Paraguayan companies seeking investment, EU investors exploring opportunities, development finance institutions, and officials from both Paraguay and the EU. Additionally, attendees will have the opportunity to use the B2match virtual platform for networking and scheduling meetings, maximizing their participation in the forum.
