From now on, we will be offering a view of our work in three issues a year, with two editions, in English and in Spanish, improving communications with our international clients. This new stage of the magazine is also meant to reflect a new stage of the company: our increasingly large presence on the international market poses new challenges and demands to become stronger, more agile and more competitive. Today, Ineco is different from what it was back in 2007, at the start of the serious economic crisis in our country, and it must also be different Tin a few years, upon the end of this process. We have been getting ready for this situation for some time. The outstanding work of our teams of professionals has made it possible to play an important role in the execution of large infrastructures in Spain, while the internationalisation strategy has made great progress. The year 2011 was a good example of this effort, with the granting of Makkah-Madinah high-speed railway as ultimate proof of the outstanding work performed. It is now time to move into a higher gear and complete the final transformation of our company, which is essential for its viability and future outlook. Our goal is growth, to expand in the world, to become more competitive and more essential wherever a large infrastructure is required. We hope to continue enjoying the interest of our clients and reader friends, who we will keep well informed of our projects and works.
