At ProChile Netherlands we are dedicated to leveraging our strengths for service and #innovation. This project #BecomeGlocal aligns perfectly with our mission to foster international collaboration and promote global business opportunities. We were happy to be present at De Haagse Hogeschool / The Hague University of Applied Sciences, joining universities from Chile, Colombia, and Spain, along with Latin American businesses, to unite in the BecomeGlocal project. We are proud to support the Chilean delegation participating in this project: Universidad Católica del Maule, Jorge Burgos, and Universidad Cat��lica de la Sant��sima Concepci��n, Steve Baeza abadie. These projects, co-funded by the European Union, highlight the qualities on both sides of the ocean. This initiative allows us to build new connections, enhance intercultural communication, and find solutions to challenges through new intercultural exchanges.   ProChile Netherlands joined the second day of the bootcamp, where Beatriz Rietveldt and Pablo M. were members of the opening panel. Questions, such as, enhancing employability by embracing diversity, involving academia and industry partners from various countries were addressed. Ornella Flores, during the group sessions, shared challenges in supply chain and production. The sessions featured, (silent) brainstorms, groupwork and presentations from interdisciplinary teams, insights from educational and industry experts. At the end of the day Jhonatan Bringas Dimitriades, MD shared his insights into the importance of diversity in the workplace.   🤝 Collaborating with companies is essential for every higher education institution. The Become Glocal initiative exemplifies this principle by bringing together diverse organizations and educational institutions to create meaningful partnerships. We believe that working with businesses is a must, and this project provides an excellent platform for such cooperation.   💡 Innovative ideas often emerge from conversations that many might shy away from. At ProChile Netherlands, we embrace these discussions to drive progress. The meeting highlighted the issue of unconscious bias and its implications in the workplace, especially in leadership and hiring practices. The homogeneity in executive boards was noted as a result of bias, and the need to intentionally seek diversity and establish clear decision-making rules was emphasized. The importance of being aware of and addressing bias in all aspects of life was also underscored.   🌐 Our efforts span the globe, and we are excited about the international impact of the Become Glocal project. By participating in this initiative, we aim to contribute to global development and strengthen international ties.   Many thanks to Marloes Ambagts -van Rooijen, Celso Meiller. Sandra J. Valencia and Zunaica Phillips. for the invitation and hosting the event. Osvaldo Marinao @Beatriz Rietveldt @Ornella Flores @Pablo Medina

⭐ Pork and poultry are #Chile's fourth largest food export sector⭐ IGNACIO FERNANDEZ , General Director of ProChile, attended the Annual Assembly of the #Chilean #Meat Exporters Association, ChileCarne, held at the San Pedro Vineyard in Requínoa, O'Higgins Region, last Thursday. #Pork and #poultry has become Chile's fourth largest food export sector after salmon, fresh fruit and wine, and represent 87% of Chile' s total meat exports. The meeting reviewed the main actions carried out by the association during 2023 and discussed the challenges and opportunities for the industry in the coming years, highlighting the efforts made to keep Chile free of diseases that could affect production and trade, increasing bio security measures and thus helping to better face the uncertain global scenario and the opening of new markets. "Strengthening the opening of markets is key to maintaining the sector's competitiveness. Chile's ratification of the free trade agreement with the European Union is one of the priorities for the sector," said Juan Carlos Domínguez, Executive President of ChileCarne. In 2023, US$1,091 million was exported in #pork, #chicken and #turkey meat, equivalent to 424 thousand tons and representing 87% of Chile's meat exports that year. Ignacio Fernández, Director of ProChile emphasized, "We are niche in these sectors, which means that the product we sell is of very good quality, traceable, with top-level production and that is internationally recognized." Producing and exporting companies gave their impressions among them @Álvaro Ortiz , industrial manager of Agrosuper, Jaime Bascunan general manager of AASA Lo Valledor AASA, Guillermo García González from Coexca S.A., Pablo Espinosa Lynch, general manager of @Maxagro and Chile Origen Consciente, which is a very important platform that covers everything from labor to the environment. The sector has the support of institutions such as Agricultural and Livestock Service of Chile (SAG), Oficina de Estudios y Políticas Agrarias Odepa and #ProChile.

One of the many world #heritage sites in #Chile ⭐ The Inca Road System or Qhapaq Ñan ⭐ 🔷 In Latin America there are countless vestiges of the #Inca Empire. Qhapaq Ñan is one of the most important. This ancient Andean Road System stretched more than 30,000 kilometers, crossing what is currently #Argentina, #Bolivia, #Colombia, #Ecuador, #Peru, and Chile. 🔷 In Chile, this trail is spread out in several zones, especially in the north of the country. One of its most famous stretches is near Diego de Almagro, close to the route to #Copiapó in the #Atacama Region. Atacama Airport is located there, 50 kilometers to the northwest of Copiapó and 20 kilometers from #Caldera and its beautiful #beach resorts.
