En Chile están muy de moda las empresas concesionarias. Ahora mismo estoy trabajando con dos de ellas.
Son empresas que, mediante licitación, se adjudican la explotación de un negocio, que puede ser del sector público o privado.
Aquí, el Ministerio de Obras Públicas entrega casi todo en concesión, llamando a licitaciones internacionales. (Mmmmm... trabajito para los traductores... Las ojeras de la foto son un recuerdo que me dejaron el año pasado...)
