This event started at 9:00 a.m. at the National Society of Industries headquarters in Lima's San Isidro district, the Presidential Office Strategic Communication and Press Secretariat reported.
Within this framework, the top official indicated that despite having completed 201 years of independence, poverty and populations who do not have access to water and sewerage still persist in Peru, as well as a lack of attention to people suffering from diseases such as tuberculosis and hospitals "that are collapsing."

In this sense, the top official called on entrepreneurs to industrialize the country. Yet, she said, there must be political will in order to achieve this transformative approach.
