And to set an example, in the Grupo ACS we have just announced the creation of the ACS University, which will train leaders by offering advanced opportunities to develop new skills and grow professionally ??.

ENR has once again recognised the Group's leadership as an international contractor, HOCHTIEF continues to strengthen our commitment to digitalisation, Abertis is has won new projects in Chile, Turner Construction Company has started work on the San Francisco airport and with the start of the NFL we have remembered that more than half of the competition's stadiums bear our signature. And we also bring you news from CIMIC Group Limited , Flatiron Construction and CLECE, S.A.

And there's more to come - take a breath and let's go for it ????!
