EXPONAVAL 2012 welcomes more than 140 companies and 80 official navy delegations in Valparaiso. EXPONAVAL, organized by Chile Navy and FISA, has become one of the most important international naval industry event, a meeting point where national and foreign civilians and navy members exchange opinions and establish trade, political, and social relations for a better integration and feasible and convenient solutions to each State problems in general, and to each navy in particular. EXPONAVAL highlights its highly specialized technical-professional atmosphere, which contributes to national awareness on the importance of our ocean in the nation’s developing and wellbeing. In this process, Chile Navy is a relevant actor to be considered in the preservation and protection of this heritage. For the fifth time since 2004, MundoChile had the privilege of providing consecutive English and Spanish interpretation services to the Canadian delegation participating in Exponaval during this entire international event.
