The government delegate in Galicia, Pedro Blanco, highlighted today in Santiago the “unfailing support” of the Government of Spain to promote the densevolvement and growth of Galician companies. It did so during the event of the Chamber of Commerce, where the Activity Report of the year 2024 was presented, a review of the work carried out over the past year and with which more than 3,500 companies and self-employed workers were supported, mobilizing more than 1 million euros through programs financed with European funds.
“You are synonymous with dynamism, tradition and quality, forming part of the identity of Santiago and its future projection”, said Pedro Blanco during the event, in which he congratulated the Chamber for the work and commitment, “making local trade grow, the small companies that create city, that cohede the territory and that make Galicia bigger”.
“As I always say, there is no future without quality employment,” he added, referring to the more than 30,000 companies with a presence in about thirty concellos.
Pedro Blanco took advantage of his speech to remember the commitment of the Government of Spain with the Galicians and Galicians demonstrating with facts that “we are at your side and are your best ally in the generation of wealth, carrying out initiatives that reflect this reality in which the commitment of the Government with companies, with trade and with Santiago is firm and real”.
In this sense, he pointed out that SMEs and the self-employed are the main protagonists in Galicia through the Government Recovery Plan, which includes “the greatest measures of support to the commercial and business fabric of our recent history” making it a fundamental piece to place our community “in a context of sustained growth of job creation”, said the delegate.
A reality based on data because “four out of ten beneficiaries of the Recovery Plan in Galicia are SMEs”, with hundreds of millions of euros injected “to promote the digital transformation of companies or adapt proximity trade to new technologies”. Figures that, according to the government delegate in Galicia, show that “small and medium-sized enterprises are taking advantage of this unique opportunity”.
