What happens to INTA in Maspalomas with the people here?

Dácil Santana Sunday, May 19, 2024

Blunder by the Secretary of State for Commerce with a business activity at the INTA plant in Maspalomas, property of the Air and Space Army. Only presence of people from Las Palmas at an event where the aim was to establish an agenda so that companies knew their development plans. On May 14, the day was dedicated in its entirety to the Executive Committee for the strategic and commercial promotion of the Canary Islands, organized by the Territorial Directorate of Commerce Secretariat under the Territorial Directorate of Commerce of Las Palmas. Only authorities outside the south of Gran Canaria that, for trifles like watering the plants with vocational training students, do exist. The official version says that INTA also provides technological services to industry companies, as well as companies from higher education and research institutions.

Someone will say that in the south of the island there are no companies in that sector but it is also true that this is not 1969 and Perhaps it is the responsibility of INTA not to ask the City Council of San Bartolomé de Tirajana to speak with the Government of the Canary Islands about a FP in the south of Gran Canaria specialized in that aerospace sector when the south of Gran Canaria lives in a good part of the aeronautical industry given that there is a specialization course in Composite Materials in the aerospace industry (GS Access) in FP in Spain and, in the Canary Islands, there is none with the headquarters in Maspalomas, as approved in 2021 by the Council of Ministers with the creation of an aerospace Vocational Training (FP) master's degree to respond quickly to the innovations that occur in the production system and, therefore, have high employability.

In Las Palmas there are no real companies that make a living from projects with their own money, but there is a recent case of 14 million euros that Brussels has allocated to a company and there is also a so-called Aerospace Cluster of the Canary Islands that is owned by Femepa such as the Maritime Cluster of the Canary Islands. . Here you eat by land, sea and air. There was no presence of the Royal Economic Society of Friends of the Country of Gran Canaria, which does have an industrial agenda of technical cooperation with companies and authorities in the south of the island, headquarters of multiple societies linked to aeronautical training in places such as Bahía Feliz or of ICTs in San Fernando.
