Thank you for your suggestions

You may use the term "oportunidades comerciales" which sounds very natural in Spanish. However the term "oportunidades de negocios" is also used in the business world. In my opinion, this phrase is a "calco ling��stico" as we call it in Spanish.
In Business and IT it is very common to use some expressions that are literal translations of phrases in English. So, it wouldn't be wrong to use the second option.

Regards,

Thank you for your help. Indeed it sounds strange some of these terms in Spanish. I like more Oportunidades Comerciales.

I agree with Clarab. "oportunidades de negocio" is widely used in the business world.

Me too, I think both are correct. Try to find out what�s more used in your target flavor
