The business leader, speaking calmly and with arguments based on experience, seeks for political parties, representing a qualified majority of Valencian society, to reach basic consensuses. The main priority is regional funding, a recurring theme in his public interventions.
Public-private collaboration is precisely based on trust. Without it, and with major political groups at odds, the playing field becomes too muddy.
Furthermore, the CEV president has warned about the lack of an emergency culture after the DANA (cold drop) and the existing confusion in industrial estates regarding who is responsible for setting priorities in the face of adverse weather phenomena and how safety protocols for workers should be applied.
He also highlighted concerns about talent loss, an issue he considers crucial for improving the competitiveness of Valencian companies. This problem has become evident in the personnel selection for the Volkswagen gigafactory in Sagunto.
Finally, he reflected on the creativity of Valencians and the tendency for internal discussions, which often hinder progress. He ironically mentioned the famous phrase from the 'Battle of Valencia' about the paella being stolen, noting that in the recent TastArròs competition, the winner was from Extremadura.
