There is a huge potential for exchange of practical knowledge. Hope to see in the near future more hands on (real business) education cooperation between Brazil and the U.S.

It will be interesting to see if Brasil invests in the intellectual capital produced through state education, or predominantly those that have been educated through the private schools and colleges.

There is no time, and no case, for being politically precious here; the future development of the nation is at stake.
