José Gilberto Moreno , managing director of Puertos Canarios, emphasizes that we want Agaete to be a window to explain, in a close and understandable way, what a smart eco-port means today: a more efficient, more sustainable, more innovative port and more open to the public.

 

The event is organized in collaboration with the Agaete City Council and the Agaete Fishermen's Guild , and is designed as an invitation to view the port from a broader perspective: not only as a connection infrastructure and economic activity, but also as a space for innovation, ecological transition and citizen participation.
