Expresamos nuestras más profundas condolencias por el fallecimiento de Don Juan-Miguel Villar Mir, fundador y presidente de Ferroatlántica hasta 2010, germen de lo que hoy es Ferroglobe PLC; y todo un referente en la historia reciente de España. Doctor Ingeniero de Caminos Canales y Puertos, Villar Mir fue vicepresidente del Gobierno y Ministerio de Economía y Hacienda; y lideró la creación del grupo empresarial multinacional, Grupo Villar Mir, con compañías como OHL, Fertiberia VM Energía y la propia Ferroglobe, dando empleo a más de 30.000 personas en 35 países. Su visión y liderazgo han sido fundamentales en la construcción y el éxito de nuestra propia compañía. Bajo su dirección, Ferroglobe PLC se ha consolidado como líder mundial en la producción de silicio metal, un material crítico para la energía solar, los microchips o las baterías del vehículo eléctrico, apoyando así el camino de la transición energética. Sin embargo, no solo fue un líder excepcional, sino también un hombre de familia que fue capaz de combinar sus esfuerzos empresariales con una extensa labor académica, encontrando tiempo para dedicar a su familia y seres queridos. Desde Ferroglobe, le debemos una enorme gratitud, tanto a nivel personal como corporativo y expresamos nuestras más sinceras condolencias a su familia y amigos en este difícil momento. D.E.P. Juan-Miguel Villar Mir. ----------------------------------------------- We express our deepest condolences on the passing of Mr Juan-Miguel Villar Mir, founder and president of Ferroatlántica until 2010, the foundation upon which Ferroglobe PLC stands today, and a prominent figure in Spain's recent history.

He spearheaded the creation of the multinational business group, Grupo Villar Mir, with companies such as OHL, Fertiberia VM Energía, and Ferroglobe itself, employing over 30,000 people in 35 countries. His vision and leadership were instrumental in the construction and success of our company. Under his direction, Ferroglobe has become a global leader in the production of silicon metal, crucial for solar energy, microchips, and modern batteries. However, he was not only an exceptional leader but also a family man who managed to balance his business efforts with extensive academic work, always finding time for his family and loved ones.

📌 Ferroglobe PLC’s CEO, Marco Levi, has participated in the Antwerp Dialogue on Trade, hosted by AEGIS Europe and industriAll Europe in Brussels, focused on the future of an effective trade policy preventing further deindustrialization in Europe and combating massive overcapacities worldwide. The Antwerp Dialogue addressed crucial topics around the need for a robust EU trade policy to safeguard against economic distortions and ensure a level playing field for European industries. Some of them included: 🔵 The impact of geopolitical, economic, and environmental challenges on European manufacturing. 🔵 The urgent need for an Open Strategic Autonomy to ensure a competitive and resilient EU. 🔵 The significant threats posed by unfair competition, particularly from non-market excess capacities in China. 🔵 The necessity for robust trade defense rules and a targeted industrial policy to secure Europe’s industrial future. 🗣 During his intervention, Marco Levi emphasized that “excess capacities in non-EU countries, especially in the silicon metal sector, distort the market and suppress prices, causing financial instability for EU producers. Therefore, we need stronger trade defense mechanisms to protect the EU market and ensure fair competition”. Our participation at this event, as the largest western producer of #siliconmetal and a relevant industrial player in Europe, offered a valuable opportunity to shed light on the challenges of the European manufacturing sector. #AntwerpDialogue #EUIndustry #BuildingOurFuture
