Madrid Platform closed its second edition yesterday, with the participation of numerous European and Latin American politicians and entrepreneurs, but will continue to work during the year ahead with more than 3,000 companies that, in-person and online, have connected to achieve synergies and advance globalization.
Over the past three days, there have been a succession of discussion forums and presentations by 355 panelists on entrepreneurship, sustainability, startups, technology and digital transformation. In addition, 60 events have taken place; a new Investor’s Club has been announced to support participating companies; a hub for audiovisual creation and video games will be launched; and yesterday the protocol was signed to launch the First Meeting of Ibero-American logistics operators.
The president and founder of this concept, Carlos Morales, highlighted “what it means for Madrid and for Spain to have succeeded in making the capital the gateway for Latin American companies to Europe and for European companies to Latin America”. “We want to be the business hub and we are achieving it,” he concluded.
