It is necessary to deepen policies that allow progress and improvement in taxation, sustainability and digitisation, without forgetting specialised training plans and the improvement of infrastructures to better connect Navarre with the rest of Spain and Europe.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-67eea5f\" data-id=\"67eea5f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-efdfa53 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"efdfa53\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"453\" height=\"140\" src=\"https:\/\/investinnavarra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/LOGO-VW-NAVARRA.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-25134\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/investinnavarra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/LOGO-VW-NAVARRA.png 453w, https:\/\/investinnavarra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/LOGO-VW-NAVARRA-300x93.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-13fd372 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"13fd372\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a1997e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0a1997e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/investinnavarra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Michael-Hobusch-VW-NAVARRA-2-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-25124\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/investinnavarra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Michael-Hobusch-VW-NAVARRA-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/investinnavarra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Michael-Hobusch-VW-NAVARRA-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/investinnavarra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Michael-Hobusch-VW-NAVARRA-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/investinnavarra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Michael-Hobusch-VW-NAVARRA-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d3708a6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d3708a6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><b>Michael Hobusch<\/b><\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1722919 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1722919\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">President of Volkswagen Navarra<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4686970 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4686970\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4282f3d\" data-id=\"4282f3d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The president of the Landaben plant, Michael Hobusch, highlights in this interview the strategic role of Navarra in the Volkswagen Group&#8217;s commitment to sustainable mobility.
