“ Without investment, economic growth is impossible.Well-planned and high-quality foreign investment indeveloping countries can help make economic practicesmore sustainable. Inappropriate investment, however,can undermine communities and the environment.

Proper goal in attracting investment is quality, ratherthan quantity. In the end, if investment does notincrease well-being on a sustainable basis, it is notworth having, much less actively chasing. (InternationalInstitute for Sustainable Development, Canada)

While the State of Minas Gerais assumes the role of promoter and clearinghouse

for investments, it is aligned with the basic concepts of this new entrepreneurialculture, which involve:

overcoming bureaucratic bottlenecks that inhibit the adoption of performance-based models of administration.

breaking with inefficient management practices.decentralizing and opening spaces for the involvement of the private sector in the

process of development.managing fiscal crises, economic externalities, and imperfect contracts in the

credit markets;overcoming the lack of clear regulatory function and market credibility;

Long-term planning: research and development programs that present aninvestment portfolio for attracting private sector interest;

Coordination among diverse state development institutions: cutting waste,redundancies, and loss of efficiency.

“ Minas Gerais presents Brazil with a new management model. Wehave left behind that motto that Public services are inefficient bynature. We are bringing private sector management methods , withperformance evaluation and the establishment of goals to beachieved. “ ( Governador Aecio Neves) E N
