CLH and the Promotion Institute of the Region of Murcia renew an agreement to promote entrepreneurship

  • This initiative rewards three entrepreneurs, who are selected from among the twelve winners of the Entrepreneur of the Month Awards

The Chairman of the CLH Group, José Luis López de Silanes, and the president of the Promotion Institute of the Region of Murcia (INFO), Ana Martínez Vidal, have today renewed, for the fifth year running, the sponsorship agreement of the INFO-CLH Entrepreneur of the Year Awards aimed at promoting entrepreneurship activities in the region.

The initiative rewards three entrepreneurs, who are selected from among the twelve winners of the Entrepreneur of the Month Awards, given by the INFO, with the aim of contributing to the consolidation of their business projects. Since these awards began back in 2015, they have been presented to twelve projects from various industries.   

The collaboration is part of the CLH Group Entrepreneurship Support Policy, which aims to support programmes that facilitate the implementation of new ideas, the development of innovative projects and the promotion of entrepreneurial spirit, contributing to job creation and economic growth. This policy is applied nationwide, and is particularly relevant in the communities in which the company is present.

As part of this Policy, CLH currently develops entrepreneurship support programmes with the Institute for Business Competitiveness of Castilla y León (ICE) and Campus Iberus, an entity to which the main universities in the Ebro valley belong.
