Josefina Bueno: All the polls tell me is that I have to keep insisting on the street
Innovation Minister Josefina Bueno will headline a breakfast colloquium on Tuesday, turning a routine morning into a focused briefing about regional progress. The session, set against the backdrop of Alicante, will bring together public officials, industry voices, and local leaders who want to hear how the Generalitat’s strategies are playing out in the province. The event is framed under a banner that emphasizes action in Alicante, signaling the ministry’s intent to translate policy into tangible results for residents and businesses alike.
The gathering will be held at the El Maestral restaurant, starting at 9:30 am. It is organized by the INFORMATION Club in collaboration with the Ministry of Innovation, Universities, Science and Digital Society. The program promises a candid dialogue about recent achievements and the path forward for the region. The session will be introduced by Marcela Fernández, a respected figure in Alicante’s business community, while the INFORMATION Club director will guide the discussion. The format aims to blend policy highlights with practical considerations for local stakeholders.
Bueno appears as the lone socialist councilor still serving in the Puig administration with Alicante ties, a profile that adds resonance to the conversation. Her career in academia began in the field of French Philology at the University of Alicante, and she entered electoral politics with a Senate seat in 2019. Since then, she has been a visible advocate for regional development, education, and digital initiatives. Now leading the regional list for the coming elections, she carries the responsibility of presenting the administration’s strategy for the province, including the priorities that anchor the Alicante chapter of the government program. The minister’s remarks on Tuesday will outline where the Generalitat sees opportunity in Alicante and how policy instruments will be deployed to unlock it. The likely focus areas span innovation, digital infrastructure, and the collaboration between universities and the private sector to foster talent and investment in the region.
The event’s creators describe it as more than a simple briefing. It is portrayed as a platform for transparent conversation about how the government’s priorities align with local needs. Attendees can expect an overview of the current status of ongoing projects, a breakdown of funding channels, and a candid assessment of challenges that require joint effort. The forum structure encourages questions and direct input from residents, business leaders, and civic organizations, reinforcing the idea that governance works best when it is informed by the people it serves. The morning’s dialogue will therefore blend policy exposition with practical demonstrations of how decisions are translated into measurable improvements across infrastructure, education, and digital access in Alicante and its surroundings.
