Marcelo Lu, President, BASF Canada

Marcelo Lu grew up in Brazil, has family roots in China, was educated in the United States and established his career in both Europe and Asia. Today he leads the Canadian operations of BASF, the world’s largest chemical producer. Marcelo brings a truly international perspective to his role as President of BASF Canada, but as you’ll hear he has also developed a strong personal attachment to Canada. And he has some equally strong opinions about our country’s place and potential in the global economy.

“I believe that our future will be about technology freeing us up to [have] more [human interactions]”
