The director himself is going to be one of the members of the mission.

Fiesp also intends to help organize meetings with high-technology companies and governments. "Brazil has a lot to contribute to discussions on future energy, turned to clean, environmentally sustainable sources," said Cavalcante, according to an article by Fiesp.

According to the director, the Brazilian biofuels program is the world's largest and most real, with over 30 years' experience. Cavalcanti also stated that the summit is going to be an opportunity for Brazil to clarify to other nations how the ethanol production process works.

The summit, an initiative of Masdar, a state-owned company in Abu Dhabi that is developing the Masdar City project, a fully planned and sustainable city, should attract around 100 speakers and 300 companies from 30 countries. During the three days of the event, proposals will be discussed concerning environmental preservation, global warming and energy reserves.

According to the organizers of the summit, Gary Gilmour and Rebecca Oxley, who came to Brazil early this month, investment in Masdar City total to US$ 15 billion for building a 640-hectare city. The aim is for it to become a sort of international cooperation program turned to solving great problems facing humanity, such as energy security, climate change and sustainable development.
