Executive Director of the PRCC, Attorney Liza García, emphasized the significance of female leadership and the spirit of collaboration defining this new administration.
“The arrival of Attorney Ramírez Báez to the presidency represents a major step toward a more inclusive, dynamic, and results-driven Chamber. I am confident that under her leadership, we will amplify the voice of the business sector and continue driving initiatives that foster Puerto Rico’s socioeconomic transformation,” said García.
This gathering will serve as a unique opportunity to reaffirm the PRCC’s role as a key driver of economic growth, innovation, and social responsibility in Puerto Rico.
