In line with its strategic plan "Leading the Future", Indra Group has strengthened its organisation to become the Spanish multinational of reference in defence, aerospace and advanced digital technologies, with a key role in Europe and a larger global footprint.
As of 1 September, the company will incorporate as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Miguel Forteza, until now Deputy CFO and Chief Investment Officer of Nortia Capital Investment, where he has been responsible for the financial area, budgets and investments, as well as the definition of the strategic plan and M&A (Mergers and Acquisitions). As part of this group, he has been chairman of Nortia Capital Riesgo SCR and director and member of the advisory committee of different entities.
