Ricardo Sáez, general manager of SITRA, has participated in the series of meetings organized by the newspaper Levante-EMV to discuss compliance with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Sáez, along with specialists and authorities such as the Regional Secretary of Public Works, María Pérez; the Director of Industrial Governance, Carlos González; the advisor to the president of Ferrmed, Francisco García; the president of the Ateneo of Valencia, Carmen de Rosa; the deputy director of the Innovation Agency, Roberto Arnau, Raúl Mir, from the Valencian Association of Startups or José Campillo, from the Board of COIIV, has analyzed the need to promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization, as well as to foster innovation, in relation to compliance with SDG number 9.
In that sense, during the debate several key points have been offered to help build an industry that is more respectful of both the environment and the rights of workers and consumers.
During his speech, Sáez recalled the vital role of water in industrial development and advocated for promoting the circular economy in the sector to "transform the old concept of a wastewater treatment plant into a new concept of a biofactory in order to, through innovation, turn what was previously a problem, such as the generation of waste, into a great business opportunity for the Green Economy."
The debate, moderated by the director of Institutional Relations of Prensa Ibérica, Julio Monreal, has had the support of FACSA as one of the sponsoring companies.
