The energy transition has become both a strategic challenge and an opportunity for businesses in the Basque Country. In an environment defined by commitments to reduce emissions and progress towards climate neutrality, the Basque business sector faces challenges such as industrial decarbonisation, integration of renewable energy, efficiency, and technological innovation. Public-private collaboration and the involvement of various sectors are essential to accelerate this change, positioning the Basque Country as a benchmark for sustainability and competitiveness within the new energy paradigm.

This event, organised by Fundación Repsol in collaboration with CEAJE and the Young Entrepreneurs Association of Álava (AJEBASK), will bring together experts from local institutions and companies to analyse the challenges and opportunities presented by the new energy paradigm. It will also be a platform to share experiences and innovative solutions, as well as strategic alliances that enhance competitiveness in the context of the energy transition.
