Overview

• The Caribbean Export Development Agency (Caribbean Export) and the Caribbean Association of Investment Promotion Agencies (CAIPA) have announced the 2nd hosting of the Caribbean’s Regional Investor of the Year Awards 2014 (RIYA 2014).
  
  Companies from Haiti and other Caribbean countries are invited to participate.
  
  This year the RIYA 2014 will seek to promote investments in initiatives that employ environmentally friendly and sustainable business practices – initiatives that protect the region’s delicate ecosystem – its flora, fauna, and human life. Foreign and local investor applicants must demonstrate that they have made significant contributions through changes in processes, practices, and structures to moderate potential damages to the region's ecosystem, or to benefit from opportunities associated with the green economy.
  
  This year’s Special Award category will bring the spotlight on Women Investors and their achievements in the region. Applicants in this category do not have to be investors in a green initiative per se, but must demonstrate the significant impact they have had on the region’s socio-economic development because of their investment.
