The International Association of Port Development (IAPORTS) has officially announced the IAPORTS Investment Round 2026, a high-level, invitation-only matchmaking event that will take place on April 13, 2026, at the São Paulo Stock Exchange (B3).

Designed as IAPORTS’ flagship platform connecting the financial sector with port authorities, terminal operators, infrastructure investors, development banks, and strategic partners, the Investment Round will bring together senior decision-makers from across the global port ecosystem to discuss infrastructure expansion, decarbonization, innovation, and international cooperation. The event is expected to host approximately 250 senior port and investment leaders from multiple countries, featuring 10 expert presentations and more than 130 curated one-on-one matchmaking meetings, structured to foster meaningful dialogue and concrete partnership opportunities.

“The IAPORTS Investment Round was created to bridge the gap between global capital and real port infrastructure opportunities. By hosting this initiative at B3, we reinforce São Paulo’s role as a global hub for strategic investment dialogue in the port sector and create a qualified environment for international cooperation,” said Raquel Kibrit, Executive Director of IAPORTS.

The initiative counts on the strategic support of ApexBrasil – the Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency, reinforcing Brazil’s positioning as a destination for infrastructure investment. “Events like the IAPORTS Investment Round are essential to showcase Brazil’s infrastructure potential and to connect international investors with concrete opportunities in the port sector. This initiative contributes directly to strengthening Brazil’s presence in global investment flows” said Carlos Eduardo Padilla, Investment Coordinator at ApexBrasil.

As an Elite Member of IAPORTS, PortosRio highlighted the importance of the platform for public port authorities and institutional stakeholders. “The IAPORTS Investment Round creates a strategic space for dialogue between ports, investors, and policymakers,” said Flavio Vieira, president of PortosRio, IAPORTS’s Elite member.

The event will be hosted at B3 – São Paulo Stock Exchange, reinforcing the link between capital markets and long-term infrastructure development. “B3 is proud to host an initiative that brings together investors, infrastructure projects, and global leaders in such a qualified and international environment. This event aligns with our mission to foster sustainable investment and strengthen Brazil’s role in global capital markets” said Monica Salles Lanna, from B3.
