The United in Performance Award honors exceptional customer collaboration. This award is presented to Rodrigo Izzo, Carlos Valencia, Pedro Debia and Luis Vera of Epiroc Chile, as well as to mining company Antofagasta Minerals’ team at its Los Pelambres copper mine.

Carme Riera, President of the Judging Panel, member of the Spanish Royal Academy, and Professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona announced the winner on 5th March.
