Dear Colleague,

We would like to invite you to join Europe's leading manufacturers and senior sustainability civil servants at the Sustainable Manufacturing Summit in Brussels between November 19-21.

Sustainability is now a key strategy and value driver for Europe's manufacturers. With volatile energy costs and politicians seeking to encourage sustainable production and consumption, manufacturers know that efficient and sustainable production makes great business sense. The Sustainable Manufacturing Summit is the networking event for sustainability professionals who want to create, share and improve their environmental and energy strategies. The updated agenda is now available. The speaker line-up includes:
  • Alain Denielle, Corporate EHS Group Director, STMicroelectronics

En ese sentido, reconoció "el valor de los primeros contactos con estas empresas que realizó en representación de Corrientes el diputado nacional José María Roldán", quien llevó consigo información detallada sobre la capacidad productiva de la provincia en un reciente viaje a España. El gobernador, Roldán, Mireta Mendizábal y Alvear Almunia Durante el encuentro se analizaron las condiciones que ofrece Corrientes tanto desde el punto de vista de la bioenergía (por la gran cantidad de madera industrializable con que cuenta la provincia) como desde la óptica del transporte de mercancías.

Futuras obras como el complejo multimodal de cargas y el segundo Puente Corrientes-Chaco, también estuvieron en al agenda
