The Cáceres Chamber of Commerce’s Club 18|99 continues to grow and expand its community of leading companies with the addition of Unicaja as a new Premium member, a move that reinforces the distinctive character of this large business family and its aim to become a leading meeting point for companies, entrepreneurs and professionals in the province.
Unicaja’s membership was formalised this Thursday at the Cáceres Chamber of Commerce’s premises, during a ceremony attended by the president of the Cáceres Chamber of Commerce, Gabriel Álvarez Arroyo; the Chamber’s secretary-general, Raúl Iglesias; Unicaja’s regional director for Extremadura, Marga Serna; and the bank’s director for the Northern Extremadura area, Marta Muñoz.
With this new addition, Club 18|99 welcomes one of the country’s leading financial institutions – and one with particularly strong ties to Extremadura – to its membership, thereby consolidating a business community committed to bringing together companies and organisations that share a common vision: to do business in the region based on excellence, quality and the creation of opportunities.
For the president of the Cáceres Chamber of Commerce, Gabriel Álvarez Arroyo, “Unicaja’s arrival as a Premium member represents, in this sense, a fresh boost to Club 18|99’s position as the leading business community in the province of Cáceres, by bringing on board an organisation with a strong track record, a significant regional presence and a commitment to the economic and social development of Extremadura”.
In the words of Marga Serna, Unicaja’s regional director, “this partnership strengthens our relationship with businesses in Cáceres and enables us to continue supporting them in their projects, challenges and growth processes”. “Unicaja is delighted to be part of this collaborative initiative, through which we aim to share experiences, create new opportunities and contribute to the economic and social development of the province,” she added.
Unicaja, a leading institution in Extremadura
Unicaja is one of the leading banks in the Spanish financial system and a listed company on the IBEX 35. Indeed, it is a leading institution in six autonomous communities – its regions of origin (Andalusia, Asturias, Cantabria, Castile-La Mancha, Castile and León, and Extremadura) – and has a significant presence throughout the country.
It is characterised by its universal banking model and sustainable business approach, underpinned by prudent management of its commercial strategy and risk profile, as well as a socially responsible ethos that prioritises quality, innovation and digital transformation, whilst incorporating technology to enhance customer service and the bank’s efficiency.
This vision and its deep roots in Extremadura make Unicaja a strategic partner for Club 18|99, in line with the Cáceres Chamber of Commerce’s commitment to connecting local businesses with leading organisations and creating spaces that foster business growth and competitiveness.
A community that continues to grow
With the addition of Unicaja, Club 18|99 continues to expand its network of Corporate and Premium members and to strengthen a business ecosystem designed to connect the companies that drive the region’s progress.
Currently, this exclusive club in the province of Cáceres has over a hundred member companies.
Membership of the Club allows members to be part of an exclusive community where networking takes on a new dimension: connecting people, businesses and projects; sharing knowledge; generating synergies; and opening up new business opportunities.
Through its meetings and events, Club 18|99 creates specially designed settings to facilitate these connections and offer high-value experiences to its members, always with a focus on excellence, quality and exclusivity.
Unicaja’s membership reinforces this mission and helps to further raise the standard of a business community that aspires to be a leading hub for those wishing to do business in Cáceres alongside the very best.
Club 18|99 thus welcomes Unicaja as a new Premium partner and celebrates its joining a business family that is growing, connecting and investing in the future of the province.
