These are the emerging 2022

From politics, economics, science, arts and sports, these are some of the characters destined to star in 2022, a year that, after the pandemic, should be one of hope:

The ’emptied Spain’ raises its voice

A new player enters the Spanish political board. España Vaciada, led by Antonio Saz, is a platform that brings together associations from depopulated provinces. It will have in the elections of Castilla y León the first proof of its influence and its first electoral thermometer. PP and PSOE are put on alert.

Elia Torroella, the hope of the Spanish vaccine

The Hipra laboratory vaccine could be approved in mid-2022, explains Elia Torroella, researcher and director of R&D and registries at the Catalan pharmaceutical company. The company is working on the final phase of clinical trials and large-scale production of the compound.

Marta Ortega, one more woman in the Ibex

Marta Ortega, the youngest daughter of the founder of the Inditex empire, Amancio Ortega, will preside over the textile colossus as of April 1 and will thus swell the list of women, still scarce, of the Ibex 35, a still very masculine preserve.

Annalena Baerbock, a green person in charge of Foreign Affairs

The former environmental candidate for the German Chancellery, Annalena Baerbock, fights, at 41, to forge her own profile at the head of her country’s diplomacy within the so-called ‘traffic light coalition’. For the first time in the Federal Republic, a woman heads the Foreign Affairs portfolio, usually occupied by mature men.

Víctor Ródenas, the chef who aims high from Sant Antoni

At the head of his kitchen he wants to grow gastronomically. At night, imagine the dishes that come to life in your kitchen in the morning.

Milena Smit, overwhelming presence of Spanish cinema

In the gaze of the 25-year-old actress from Elche, there is mystery and innocence at the same time. After becoming ‘Almodóvar girl’ with the film ‘Parallel mothers’, 2022 should confirm Milena Smit as the most overwhelming presence in Spanish cinematography. “I like to put myself in the place of others and I happen to be romantic and sensitive,” he says in an interview with EL PERIÓDICO.
