	Robert Westcott, general manager Guaitecas Travesia Lodge, dedicated to navigation tourism through the Aysen channels

	The seed capital sponsored by EuroChile really helped us to start selling our product the best possible way, to foster sustainable tourism in the insular region of Aysen (south of Chile). We studied foreign markets and similar experiences, which gave us vital information to position our project in the international market.
	Sol Pardo, Gran Atacama Tour Operator Manager, dedicated to develop, distribute, and commercialize touristic products in the Atacama Region

	“The participation in the technological internship in Valle de Sensaciones in Spain was an important support for the future development of our Pan de Azúcar Lodge. We will now incorporate our new expert competence in the construction and in the use of renewable materials and clean energy. We want to highlight the brisk and organized work of EuroChile in the presentation of the internship project as well as in the coordination and preparation of the program. They helped us to fulfill the foreseen objectives in accordance with the needs of the company.”
	Javier Moya, Diagnotec executive, diagnosis and infectious disease control for the aquaculture industry

	“The aims of the technology mission in fish health to Denmark and Norway were to see laboratory and reference techniques that are used in Europe; to make contacts with experts and get to know the pathologies that do not exist in Chile. The experience was 100% positive, it was very important to compare realities and share criteria and realize that research in Chile is exigent and that we are on the right way. EuroChile was a key factor in the development of the initiative. We had a concentrated and concrete agenda, using the contacts of the foundation in order to optimize the visits and create a very good feedback .”
	Marcos Saavedra, 2nd Director Tourism Association Nomads of the South, representative of the Tourism SMEs Association Las Guaitecas

	“The experience to participate in the technology mission to Spain and Ireland in order to get to know the European experience of the development of whale watching tourism was extremely interesting. All aims were fulfilled and our expectations were over-satisfied. Now one of the challenges waiting for us is to promote a collective awareness in the community that our zone has a unique potential that we have to use sustainably and make it internationally well known as a quality tourism destination. EuroChile’s role in this initiative is fundamental, as it leads us in the development of our zone, gives us the possibility to advertise the project, collaborate in it and turn it into an income source in order to improve the life quality and diminish the social cleavage in the North of the Aysen region.”
	Germán Vergara, Sinquiver Commercial Manager. Company dedicated to the fabrication of chemical products for the water and cellulose treatment plants

	“The internship in Sweden that we did in order to get to know the liquid waste treatment technology of the company Anoxkaldnes allowed us to get detailed knowledge about the application of this technology in the main paper and cellulose plants of the country and about the tools that are used in Europe for the determination of water quality. Now we can introduce in Chile a new form of laboratory analysis which will be an advance for our clients and the country. The support and consulting of EuroChile was fundamental in the application process and in the handling of the resources, and so we could put into practice all the activities without discomfort and within the scheduled terms.”
