Context:
Highly qualified population; availability of natural resources;
diversified and modern industries coupled with a developed
infrastructure and competitive costs and services; altogether in
addition to investment incentives and a proper juridical framework
make Argentina an excellent place at the time of making a decision
to invest.
Please, join us at the end of the meeting to analyze opportunities
of cooperation with national and regional governmental
representatives from transport, industry, agriculture, energy,
science and technology.
The following presentation will be posted in short at our website
