RAMON PUENTE, CEO of Gas Gas
?In a globalized world with multinational companies, we decided to combine our companies from Catalunya to meet the demands of a highly competitive market. We have the people, knowledge and infrastructure in order to have a discourse on the bike. I think we can not abandon this historical legacy and we have to take responsibility to reposition the industry in its rightful place. ?
JOAN GURT, CEO of Ossa
?We have part egos left to create a project from Catalunya to allow us relanzarnos at all levels, both production and market. We need to further enhance the talent from the base and that?s why it was better to be together than apart. With this union will continue advancing and protecting the home industry. ?
