For Abengoa, stakeholders are key players in the company's performance in its range of activities, which therefore makes two-way communication within a context of trust and transparency essential that enables the company to manage the expectations of its stakeholders and to uphold the commitments undertaken with each and every one of them. A joint effort in pursuing common interests is a fundamental part of tackling present and future challenges facing the company.

 

 

Communication channels

Conscious of the diversity of its business and the particularities of each of its stakeholders, Abengoa establishes dialog channels suited to each type of stakeholder.
