Have you ever seen weeks with the current level of uncertainties and disruptions in your professional life before? Probably not!
A Chinese market not performing anymore as we were used to, an US administration believing in tariffs as solution for all economy challenges, a terrible war in Europe with a strong impact on the EU just after the pandemic – the list of topics surely could be continued.
Despite of the before said, our VisionTech industry in principle still has great potentials for growth based on technology and innovation and based on well managed players in our eco-system.

The EMVA Business Conference is well-known for providing perspectives, insights and ideas.
In good tradition the conference opening keynote gives a comprehensive outlook on potential economy scenarios and developments. This goal probably has never been so difficult to achieve but Marcelo Carvalho, Former Managing Director and Global Head of Economics at BNP Paribas, took the challenge.

Marcelo Carvalho is a highly accomplished and distinguished leader in the financial industry, based in London.

Holding a PhD in Economics coupled with over two decades of extensive experience in global financial markets, Marcelo has a comprehensive understanding of diverse market and macroeconomic dynamics.

Most recently he managed a global team of more than 30 economists as the Managing Director and Global Head of Economics at BNP Paribas: with a blend of academic rigor and practical experience, Marcelo brought unparalleled expertise to the helm of BNP Paribas’ Global Markets business.

Mr. Carvalho has a notable career trajectory that includes roles at prestigious institutions, such as The International Monetary Fund, JP Morgan, and Morgan Stanley. He has proven experience navigating complex economic landscapes, first in Brazil, then expanding across Latin America and Emerging Markets.
