Galíndez LLC recently participated in the Puerto Rico Chamber of Commerce’s Private Enterprise and Government Forum, held at the Hilton Garden Inn. The event brought together business leaders and government officials to discuss critical topics affecting Puerto Rico’s private sector, including permits, tax reform, and economic development.

The forum began with welcome messages from the Puerto Rico Chamber of Commerce’s President and Executive Director, followed by remarks from Governor Jenniffer González Colón, the President of the Senate, and the President of the House of Representatives.

Four panel discussions followed, featuring industry professionals and government officials addressing major business challenges:

• Ease of Doing Business & Permits
• Tax Reform, moderated by Galíndez LLC Tax Partner Kenneth Rivera
• Education
• Economic Development

Rivera led the Tax Reform panel, guiding a discussion with experts and policymakers on the future of Puerto Rico’s tax structure. The conversation focused on necessary reforms and their impact on businesses, providing valuable insights for both the public and private sectors.
