The ceremony was held last Wednesday at the headquarters of the Brazilian embassy, ​​and the person in charge of granting the distinction was the Brazilian ambassador to Argentina, Sergio F. Danese.

Personalities from the diplomatic, business and academic field participated in the event. The ambassador referred to Grobocopatel as "an Argentine businessman with a strong academic vocation, who has revealed himself to be a great friend of Brazil and a strong promoter of bilateral economic integration." He added: "Your contribution is an invaluable contribution to our relationship in general, with your personal commitment and long-term strategic vision in favor of the increasingly intense integration of our economies."

On the badge of the Order of the Baron of Rio Branco, with which they were decorated, the motto "Ubique Patriae Memor" is engraved, which in Spanish means "Wherever I am, I will always remember the Homeland".
