Germán Loperena, USAWeek Director, stated, "this forum can be a great opportunity for large European and Spanish companies, to contact with the directly responsible of the decision-making bodies for the key projects in the U.S. industry. The U.S. market is a competitive and complex one, yet very open and committed. Loperena assures that "the biggest barriers to entry are here, not across the Atlantic, and to overcome them requires organizations to commit to the market, based on a strategic vision for long-term investment."
