Long night for the Valencian company. Cámara València celebrated its Night of the Valencian Economy today at the Palau de les Arts, with the presence of King Felipe VI, visiting the Valencian Community after having accompanied Porcelanosa in the morning in the celebration of its 50th anniversary at the facilities from Vila-real.
With the idea of reaching agreements and consensus, Felipe VI has highlighted that "we must continue working together for a Spain and a Europe with more leading companies, fully immersed in a process of digital and environmental transition."
