In exclusive statements to Prensa Latina, Vilaragut commented that the event comes at a time marked by the country’s investment in tourism works, infrastructure and the National Housing Program, among other projects.

In that context, it is a strength to have a fair where to exchange on equipment, products, technology and development, as well as to increase the productivity of investment processes, he said.

After more than two years without activities, amid the scourge of Covid-19, developing the meeting with the limitations the world is still experiencing is a challenge, Vilaragut acknowledged.

The fair also takes place virtually to guarantee the presence of other suppliers and professionals of the sector.

The 13th Scientific and Technical Conference on Construction, with 18 keynote speeches by academics and specialists, and workshops dedicated to the cement industry and the use of land in the production of materials, will also be held, he said.

Under the slogan “To increase efficiency in construction”, FECONS 2022 is being held at Pabexpo fairgrounds until Friday, with Venezuela as a guest of honor.
