Governor Raúl Jalil and the Secretary General of the Federal Investment Council (CFI), Ignacio Lamothe, signed a new agreement in Buenos Aires to increase funding by $450 million aimed at promoting sustainable tourism and cultural industries in Catamarca.
The addendum to the original agreement will strengthen various development and promotion policies for the province, with a special focus on tourism and cultural activities as engines of economic growth.
The new financing will also play a central role in the realization of the Expo Catamarca, one of the main institutional and economic events planned for this year in the province.
Expo Catamarca: a bet on productive development
The Expo Catamarca will take place from September 10 to 12 at the Catamarca Fairgrounds and will feature a call for representatives from various sectors of the economy.
The meeting will bring together operators and leaders from the business, tourism, commercial, industrial, and mining sectors, with the aim of generating new business opportunities, exchange, and promotion of the province's productive activities.
The Catamarca government presents the event as the most important institutional and economic exhibition of the year, in a context where the province seeks to strengthen its positioning and attract visitors and investments.
The additional contribution from the CFI will support the development of this initiative and deepen actions related to tourism and cultural promotion.
Catamarca seeks to establish itself as a tourist destination
The agreement signed by Jalil and Lamothe also reflects the continuity of policies aimed at positioning Catamarca as a tourist destination of growing relevance at the national and international levels.
