Madrid, Spain | The City's Business Forum Asked for a New Airport, a Ferris Wheel, AVE to Lisbon and Olympics in 2040

The Madrid Business Forum, representing the business community's response to the pressing need to transform the Community of Madrid into a space favorable to business activity, and to enhance the role of businesspeople in a social life, through its President, Hilario Alfaro asked on behalf of its 350 partners, some such as Mahou, Seat or Iberia for a new airport for the city, the start - up of the Castellana Conference Centre, the construction of the tallest Ferris wheel as an icon of the south of the city, a tourist tax for the promotion, the AVE high speed train to Lisbon, and the celebration in the Spanish capital of the Olympics in 2040.

The city’s Business Forum that claims not to receive subsidies believes that Adolfo Suárez Madrid - Barajas Airport is close to collapse because its four runway are no longer enough and they demand a new airport, either to replace the Barajas airport or to complement it, which could be located in the south of the city, and to do something with the 500 people sleeping at the airport according to the Spanish national daily newspaper, ABC.

In addition the Madrid Business Forum defends a project by Carlos Rubio for the tallest Ferris wheel in the world with 261 metres that already has a private sponsor with one hundred per cent of the expense, and would create 500 jobs in the area of the Enrique Tierno Galván park, between the Imax Cinema and the Planetarium.

Despite the rejection of the resident there is the  risk that Morocco is going to take this project, with the North African country that has already taken an interest.

Madrid Business Forum also critices the fact that the Castellana Conference Centre has been inexplicably closed for more than ten years, and a further request is the high speed train AVE Madrid - Lisbon to operate in 2030, and not as is already being said in 2034.

 Another petition is that one linked to manage another attempt concerning the 2040  Olympic Games entering in compwtition with Berlin, which his candidacy is very advanced.
