The Xunta calls for collaboration between businesses and public authorities to modernise industrial estates and improve their competitiveness

Santiago de Compostela, 5 November 2026

The Director-General for Industrial Strategy and Business Land, Bruno Fernández, today called for the continued modernisation of industrial estates to meet businesses’ current needs.

Fernández attended the opening in Santiago of the ‘Polígonos Galicia: Programme for the Management, Administration and Governance of Business Areas’ series of seminars, where he advocated collaboration between businesses, estate management bodies and public authorities to ensure that business parks offer the best possible conditions for attracting projects and creating jobs.

He noted that a business park ‘is not complete once its plots are occupied. That is when another task begins: ensuring that it operates effectively, evolves and continues to meet the needs of its businesses,’ he said. In this regard, he explained that business land policy should not focus solely on developing new sites, but should also address the operation of existing ones and what they need to remain useful and competitive.
