last 30 years.
This reorganisation represents an evolution of the current business model, in line with

new sectors and to exert their experience and way of doing things so that
other businessmen and entrepreneurs from the Valencian Community can use it as
example. “Many Valencian companies still have a long way to go
improve your margins and profitability and from our experience, we can explore
new formulas to help them”, they have indicated.

pillars of this new phase for Invext Grupo Empresarial, where the Royo family is
very committed to associationism and business development. Of the same

universities contributing their business expertise, such as CEEI, Fundación LAB, ESIC,
EDEM, University of Valencia and other entities.
