 The agreement seeks to strengthen the bases of even closer cooperation, organizing activities that support internationalization and promoting initiatives in innovation. All this with the common objective of promoting the competitive improvement of the Spanish railway sector, which in Spain generates more than 25,000 jobs, and up to 400,000 throughout Europe.

The agreement, reached in an exceptional moment, seeks further promotion of public-private collaboration that especially incorporates SMEs. It also aims to transfer confidence in favour of the use of public rail transport, which is playing and should play a key role in the future to facilitate sustainable and safe mobility of people and goods.

In addition, this agreement must serve to improve the quality of the rail service at a time when it is of vital importance to generate the maximum confidence in the safety and reliability of the railway.
