With the presence of Mayor Francisco Azcué, the launch of “Concordia Produce 2025” took place this Monday night, the first multisectoral productive exhibition in the region, which will be held on October 17 and 18.
The event brought together municipal and provincial authorities, representatives of the academic and business sectors, intermediate institutions, and residents of the city.
The Municipality invited the entire community to be part of this proposal, which will be a meeting point for companies, educational institutions, entrepreneurs, and public agencies, thus strengthening the city's productive identity and its regional projection.
COMMITMENT TO DEVELOPMENT
Azcué stated that in this administration “we are committed to sustainable development, with genuine and quality employment, which is why Concordia Produce is not just an event, it is a public policy that promotes production, entrepreneurship, coordination, and local growth”.
He also stated that “we are fulfilling the proposal we made in due course, and part of that has to do with a municipal State that governs and makes decisions surrounded by intermediate institutions and the private sector”.
In that sense, he pointed out “during this time of administration we have advanced in many concrete actions”, exemplifying with “the tax reform that was carried out last year, in which we have worked very hard, together with the entire team of the Secretariat of Finance”.
“This is a first step, there is still much to do, but we are convinced that this is the path: to create a favorable ecosystem so that the private sector, ultimately the engine of development, growth, and the generation of genuine jobs, feels that encouragement, that support, and chooses our city to develop those productive projects and continue investing and generating definitive wealth”.
JOINT WORK
The Secretary of Productive Development, Federico Schattenhofer, expressed: “This is the result of joint work with universities, the private sector, and institutions. We want this event to mark a turning point for the local productive framework. We are laying the foundations of a new productive paradigm for Concordia”.
Adrián Lampazzi, head of the Center for Commerce, Industry and Services of Concordia (CCISC), thanked the invitation for the institution to be part of the activity, noting that “the expo is a way to find what is being sought, which is for Concordia to become a thriving city again, so it is a good moment to start with this type of action, where what is being done is shown”.
Dr. Luz Marina Zapata, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Food Sciences (UNER), pointed out that “we are in charge of the academic-scientific space, where it is our turn to organize different presentations related to training and the various investigations being carried out in the field of our universities, in conjunction with institutes such as CONICET”, adding that with this action “we seek to build together with the public sector, the private sector, and the scientific field”, focusing on training “professionals for the reality we face”.
TALK
As a central part of the day, the master lecture “Thinking differently to produce better: the innovation that transforms without making noise” was held, led by the economist and current Secretary of Industry, Commerce and Mining of Entre Ríos, Dr. Victoria Giarrizzo, who provided a deep look at the impact of innovation on regional economies and productive processes.
In her speech, the professional stressed that “betting on innovation and knowledge is the key to transforming production. These exhibitions allow us to link actors, share ideas, and project a fairer and more sustainable development”.
“Concordia Produce” was declared of Legislative Interest by the Chamber of Deputies of the province of Entre Ríos.
Present were Vice Mayor Magdalena Reta de Urquiza, Provincial Deputy Carola Laner, the Secretary of Cabinet Coordination and Finance, Pablo Ferreyra, the Secretary of Government Luciano Dell´Olio, and Eng. José Jorge Penco, Dean of the UTN Concordia Regional Faculty, among others.
