La Rioja science and technology strategic planning

Overview

The province of La Rioja, Argentina, has launched its Science and Technology Strategic Plan for 2026-2030. Developed with input from nearly 300 specialists, the roadmap intends to connect innovation and knowledge with economic sectors such as mining, energy, water, health, tourism, and the knowledge economy.

Governor Ricardo Quintela and Science and Technology Secretary Hugo Vera presented the plan at Expo Rioja Futura, emphasizing the use of scientific capabilities to drive productive projects and economic growth. The province has already established a Technological Pole that has trained over 8,000 young people and facilitated approximately 700 jobs.

In a parallel economic development effort, the Cámara Empresarial Riojana has proposed creating an industrial park in the Bermejo area. Led by President Rodrigo Carrizo, the proposal aims to support the expanding mining sector by strengthening local suppliers and ensuring regional companies can integrate into the service chains of large-scale mining operations.
