Study Tour to Uruguay by Officials of the Government of Barbados
The proposed learning mission will support the development of operations that seek to unlock growth in the International Business Sector, specifically Business Process Outsourcing. This complements the strategic objectives of the country strategy by focusing on the enhancement of private sector competitiveness and supporting foreign currency-earning sectors.

The applicability of this project to the enhancement of Barbados' International Business Sector is twofold and will specifically:

1. Allow representatives of the Government of Barbados to view best practices used by Uruguay XXI, the investment and export promotion agency of Uruguay, to enhance Uruguay's high value-added service exports.
2. Provide the Government of Barbados with information on the policy tools used support export, and job generation by attracting foreign direct investments in the International Business Sector, specifically Business Process Outsourcing.
