In recent weeks, the Argentine community has been debating, through its legislators, the possibility of advancing a political measure launched by the National Government to attract large investments. In this context, the San Juan Productivity Board has expressed its views on the relevance of the "Ley Bases" and the Regime of Incentives for Large Investments (RIGI), voicing its support for this tool that promises a new beginning for mining while ensuring significant flows of international capital.

The statement from the San Juan Productivity Board, representing the Industrial Union of the province, the local mining chamber, the Argentine Chamber of Construction, and the San Juan Chamber of Foreign Trade, emphasized that final approval in the Chamber of Deputies of the Nation will be a necessary step to promote mining development in a process that will streamline the activation timelines of major projects, contributing to local employment, supplier development, and the subsequent economic growth of regions where mining activity is a major potential industry. "Collaboration among resource holders, investors, authorities, and local companies is seen as fundamental for the progress of the people of San Juan," they pointed out.

The Productivity Board brings together hundreds of SMEs from San Juan and thousands of workers "who expect their representatives to seek unity and dialogue solutions for local, regional, and national development," they added, highlighting that, in this sense, RIGI represents an important mechanism for promoting local growth. The entity's position is a call to legislators to support RIGI, emphasizing its potential to encourage investments in sectors such as mining, technology, forestry, tourism, infrastructure, and metallurgy: "This regime aims not only to attract investments but also to contribute to sustainable development and job creation in the region."
