BarcelonaThe electoral campaign for the Spanish general elections on July 23 was not the only protagonist of the week. A failed signing at Naturgy has overshadowed some of the economic news, with Francisco Reynés and Isidre Fainé as the main characters. But the one who was supposed to be the new CEO of energy, Ignacio Gutiérrez-Orrantia, current director of the American bank Citi, has finally rejected the offer. For now, therefore, Naturgy will maintain governance as it has been until now, waiting to see the outcome of the internal dispute with the funds that this chapter has caused. However, other companies and associations are making new signings, such as In-Move, Dia or Sport Cultura Barcelona.
