TESTIMONIALS
There are three things that are key: the availability of talent, political and economic stability and infrastructure. Chile was well evaluated in these areas when we were looking to invest.
The Chilean market offers many opportunities for a renewable energy company like ours, due both to its tremendous natural potential and its need to expand its matrix with clean energy.
Chinese investors are not very assiduous in investing in sectors without a reliable track record and that is why I think the Chilean mining industry, with its already established name, is a good starting point for our business in the region.
Especially after living in big cities, I find living in Viña del Mar very good from a work-life balance perspective. Our experience has been very positive. I have been here for nine years, that says a lot.
IBM has been in Chile for a long time and we have always been investing in the country. The resources, the workers, the stability, good policies and the government’s interest in promoting foreign investment give us the enthusiasm to continue expanding our alliances.
Chile is a very important market and we want to grow. When we decided to make this investment, it was not really only to make an investment: it was to try out a first step that would serve to leverage future growth.
