Gonzalo Bernardos proposes partnership model to improve public services

Economist Gonzalo Bernardos highlighted that public‑private collaborations can reduce expenses while enhancing service quality. He pointed to the new water‑treatment plant in Sant Feliu de Llobregat, financed with a €46 million private investment, as a concrete example.

Bernardos believes this model can be replicated across other basic utilities. The approach aims to deliver more sustainable and efficient public services.
