Santiago de Compostela, 3 November 2026
The President of the Xunta, Alfonso Rueda, this morning attended the opening of the Hilos del Futuro conference, organised by the Galician Textile and Fashion Cluster (Cointega). The Regional Minister for Economy and Industry, María Jesús Lorenzana, also attended.
During the event, Rueda paid tribute to the sustained efforts and day-to-day work of Galicia’s fashion professionals and businesses. The President encouraged the sector to work together to address future challenges, such as digitalisation, sustainability and generational succession. To this end, he called for a continuation of the approach taken so far: ‘Looking to the future always means keeping sight of our essence, where we come from, what gives us strength and what makes us recognisable around the world.’
