Oranjestad, ARINA - the newly<br />
established IPA in the Netherlands<br />

Training for Central America and<br />

attended by representatives of the<br />
neighbouring Curinde (Curacao),<br />
as well as by IPAs from Trinidad &<br />
Tobago, Nevis and Cuba. Among the<br />
IPAs from Central America, Costa<br />
Rica’s CINDE was also represented,<br />
as well as Pro-Barranquilla and Pro-<br />
Ecuador – from South America.<br />
The training was attended by 12<br />
participants. Aruba’s Prime Minister<br />
H.E. Mike Eman officially greeted<br />
participants with a welcome address.<br />
Feedbacks on the event were<br />
very positive, as participants were<br />
prompted to reflect on their current<br />
approaches to FDI attraction, and<br />
to assess how materials could be<br />
applied to their work on promotion.<br />
The training was jointly delivered by<br />
<strong>WAIPA</strong> Executive Director, Carlos<br />
Bronzatto, and the FDI Intelligence<br />
Advisor, Henry Loewendahl.<br />
