Medical and scientific publisher Thieme has expanded its global activities by opening offices on yet another continent: South America. Thieme Publicações LTDA, headquartered in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, has just published the first Portuguese-language clinical book "Endonasal: Atlas de anatomica cirúrgica".
Unlike Thieme Publishers Delhi, who since 2008 focus mainly on the local education and training sector, Thieme Publishers' activities in Brazil will target the clinical market. Thieme Publishers Rio is set to become the leading surgical knowledge provider in Portuguese.
Brazil also offers various other advantages: the country has a stable and functioning democracy, a large and independent market with an open environment for international investors, and a medical publishing sector that is just beginning to consolidate.
