Abstract

This chapter focuses on the transmission of knowledge that Italian emigration has brought to Latin America. More precisely Brasil will constitute the non-European country on which the analysis of Italian businesses and migration will be concentrated, trying to understand what kind of “knowledge” has taken root and what it produced. The stories of some important Italian entrepreneurs who emigrated to Brasil will be presented, highlighting the innovations their businesses have brought and what is still left of their work today. Italian immigrants’ contribution is still valued. Although in recent decades the reverse phenomenon has been taking place, many entrepreneurs and many Italian companies continue to invest and do business in Brasil, thanks to the advantages arisen from the cultural bond between these two nations.
