Digitalization is a fact and a reality that today cannot be ignored.

In this digital world where immediacy matters, it is important not to be left behind. That is why: ‘We have to go on pilot projects with awareness, focusing on those that can have quick results’, as stated by Ignacio Juanes.

The retention of talent as the basis on which to support the growth of the company was another of the topics debated during this interesting debate.
