“The Spanish Presidency should contribute to achieving a strong competitiveness agenda, with a focus on deepening the internal market and making regulatory breathing space for businesses a reality”, demands Isabel Yglesias Julià. Since 2022, she has headed the liaison office of the Spanish business association Confederación Española de Organizaciones Empresariales (CEOE). In the interview, she talks about her country's upcoming EU Council Presidency, the Spanish parliamentary elections and what she expects from Germany.

Aus dem 750-Milliarden-Euro-Paket des EU-Wiederaufbaufonds „NextGenerationEU“ (NGEU) soll Spanien alleine 152 Milliarden Euro erhalten. Die vorgesehenen Investitionen in den Bereichen Klima, Digitales, Bildung und Forschung bieten Chancen auch für deutsche Unternehmen, die sich in Spanien engagieren wollen.
