As part of his trip to Spain, President Javier Milei held a key meeting with Spanish businessmen and investors that resulted in investment announcements totaling 2.5 billion dollars.
The meeting, which included the participation of officials from the Argentine government, took place during his official visit to Spain.
According to Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno after the meeting, “during this meeting, investments in various projects by Spanish companies and investors were announced for US$2.5 billion. Spain bets on Argentina.” The message was shared on social media following the exchange between the president and representatives from the private sector.

The meeting also included the Argentine ambassador to Spain, Wenceslao Bunge Saravia, and executives from major companies such as Urbaser, ProEduca/UNIR, Hutchison Ports BEST, Platinum Equity, Ferrovial, Grupo Meliá, Prosegur, Fever, Emergent Cold LatAM, Aisa Group, Naturgy, Bemberg Capital, Xtellus Capital Partners, PTP Group, and Acciona.
The meeting was notable for its unusual dynamics in the political sphere. According to Quirno, Milei maintained a direct contact with investors for almost two hours, in an open format and without a pre-structured agenda.
“Beyond the announcements, what President Milei is doing is unique in the world. There must be no other President in the world who meets directly with investors for almost two hours in a question-and-answer session without a previously agreed agenda. That’s why these trips bring investments, due to the genuine and open direct interaction with investors,” he expressed.

The Milei government uses this type of meeting as a key tool to attract international capital, highlighting the direct relationship between the President and the private sector as a differentiator compared to other countries.
In parallel to the economic agenda, Milei also participated in the opening of the Summer Courses at San Pablo-CEU University, where he was awarded the Medal of Honor, the highest academic distinction granted by that private institution. The recognition was based on his career as an economist and educator.
The tour in Spain is part of a broader strategy by the government aimed at capturing external investments in a context of economic reforms. In this framework, the announcements of 2.5 billion dollars reflect the success of the plan and a concrete backing from international actors for the course set by the libertarian administration.
