Accompanied by the deputy mayor, Begoña Villacís, and the delegate of Economy, Innovation and Employment, Miguel Ángel Redondo, the mayor showed the willingness of the City Council to collaborate in the process of internationalization of companies so that “they can grow or face this economic crisis”, as well as in its digital transformation, a path that, he said, is being done “hand in hand with the Chamber of Commerce of Madrid”.

 

For his part, the Minister of Economy, Finance and Employment of the Community of Madrid, Javier Fernández-Lasquetty, announced that the number of Madrid companies that carried out export activities of goods and services abroad increased by 7% in 2021, reaching a total of 85. 103, and assured that the One-Stop Internationalization Window (VUI) – a tool created in 2019 by the autonomous Executive in collaboration with the Chamber of Commerce to inform, advise and promote the Madrid business fabric in international markets – has benefited nearly 14,500 companies and self-employed workers.
