Fernando Bolaños Valle
CEO OF AGROAMERICA
“Doing well by doing good”
Last 20 Years
I have led strategic investments in the Food and Beverage industry, Precision Agriculture, Entertainment Business and the Energy Sector.
What do I believe in?
I believe in alliances with interest groups (stakeholders).
I believe that social investment benefits us all.
I believe that local development is key to the sustainability of companies in their areas of influence.
The reason for this blog
Through years of work experience and as a speaker at world conferences, I have learned that sustainability must be in the DNA of companies to be successful.
Through this blog I want to share my knowledge and experiences in sustainability, which can help and inspire large entrepreneurs, but also small entrepreneurs who start their businesses and do not know which route to take.
