Argentina has that potential and it has to be able to develop it in all its dimensions”, he added.
Before the businessmen and businesswomen, Miguel Pesce provided details of the measure and stressed that the National Government decided to “advance with companies that export very valuable services because they generate employment and take advantage of an important resource such as human capital.” In addition, the President of the Central Bank specified that exports “are growing strongly, around 25% in the first quarter” and stated that “this puts us in an auspicious perspective.”
