Brazilian Business Group

A Milestone Worth Celebrating 🥂 20 Years of Impact and Community!

The Brazilian Business Group is proud to receive an official proclamation from the City of Pompano Beach, recognizing 20 years of dedication, leadership, and meaningful contributions to our business community.

On October 27, BBG Executive Board members Andrea Faria and Monica Ribeiro represented the organization at the City Commission meeting, where Mayor Rex Hardin presented the proclamation honoring two decades of commitment to entrepreneurship, professional development, international business relations, and cross-cultural collaboration.

This special recognition is a tribute to everyone who has been part of our journey—our founders, past and present leaders, members, partners, sponsors, and volunteers—whose dedication has helped shape the BBG’s legacy.

As we celebrate 20 years of accomplishments, we look ahead with renewed commitment to building bridges, strengthening partnerships, and creating opportunities that connect businesses, people, and cultures. ✨

Our sincere appreciation to Mayor Rex Hardin, the City Commission, and the City of Pompano Beach for this meaningful recognition and continued partnership.

What a night to remember.

On October 23, we came together at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino to celebrate 20 years of the Brazilian Business Group and, most importantly, the people, relationships and partnerships that made this journey possible.

The room brought together longtime members, business leaders, institutional partners, sponsors and friends, as well as many guests experiencing BBG for the very first time. For some, it was their first BBG event. What a night to discover the community.

The evening also marked a historic recognition for our organization: Mayor Rex Hardin officially proclaimed October 23 as Brazilian Business Group Day in the City of Pompano Beach, honoring BBG’s 20 years of contribution to the business community, cultural diversity and connections across South Florida.

It was a night of recognition, meaningful conversations, new connections and celebration, culminating in a powerful performance by internationally acclaimed Brazilian tenor Thiago Arancam.

To everyone who joined us, supported us, partnered with us and helped bring this milestone to life: thank you.

Twenty years brought us here. And judging by the new faces, new conversations and new relationships that began that evening, the next chapter is already taking shape.

Here are a few moments from an unforgettable BBG 20th Anniversary Gala.

Tomorrow, we celebrate 20 years of connections, businesses, relationships, and impact.

And there could be no better way to approach this milestone than by recognizing the partners helping make this historic evening possible.

Our special thanks to Seacoast Bank, Platinum Sponsor of the BBG 20th Anniversary Gala.
