The participation of the University of Guyana (UG) was a real opportunity to raise its profile, promote its research and develop its network of partners. The exhibition also gave the UG an opportunity to showcase its expertise and potential in the field of developing Amazonian natural resources in conjunction with innovative companies. Highlighting the biological properties that confirm traditional knowledge are complementary actions that can reassure consumers and innovative project leaders to better adapt to the development of our socio-economic fabric. The show was also an opportunity to meet representatives from the French Overseas Territories Ministry.
