Porto-Vigo: TGV at the top of the euroregion agenda

Northern Portugal and Galicia aim to strengthen their economic competitiveness in Europe, prioritizing high-speed rail connectivity. The CCDR-N president emphasized the need for enhanced railway links, particularly between Porto and Vigo, to boost regional cohesion and competitiveness. The strategy includes improving port infrastructure and logistics to support industrial and export activities. Collaboration between universities and businesses is essential for innovation and productivity. Despite similar economic sizes, Galicia's GDP per capita is significantly higher than that of Northern Portugal, highlighting the need for modernization and technology adoption to enhance productivity and attract talent.
