Why did you decide to go for Mindtech in its fourth edition in 2025?
In the northwest area of the peninsula there are powerful companies that can benefit from our experience and we would like to have a closer contact. This is a way of showing our interest in Galicia and the northern part of Portugal.

What do you think is the differential value of the metallurgical industry and its associated technologies in the Iberian Pole in particular?
It is a very interesting and dynamic area, where you can find a variety of companies linked to the automotive industry, component manufacturing, shipyards, wind turbine reconditioning, etc.
What challenges do you see facing the industry today?
Undoubtedly, the situation facing the automotive industry at the moment. The transition from combustion to electric vehicles is proving to be more complex than expected. The situation in Europe is not making it easy either. Traditional export markets are suffering a major slowdown that is affecting our industry.
What is needed to meet these challenges and maintain the industry’s competitiveness?
Flexibility to adapt to demand, development capacity to differentiate, automation to increase productivity, and well-qualified and, not least, motivated and committed staff.
