AmCham Chile es miembro del Consejo y estuvo representada por la presidenta de la C\u00e1mara, Kathleen Barclay.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">El Consejo, una alianza p\u00fablico-privada de l\u00edderes empresariales, acad\u00e9micos y gubernamentales tanto de California como de Chile, se form\u00f3 en el 2010 durante un viaje del presidente Sebasti\u00e1n Pi\u00f1era a California. Bas\u00e1ndose en el Plan Chile-California que fue iniciado en el 2008 por la ex presidenta Michelle Bachelet, el consejo se basa en los s\u00f3lidos lazos desarrollados a mediados de la d\u00e9cada de los 60 entre el estado de California y Chile.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">El Consejo representa un nuevo enfoque en materia de relaciones exteriores al desarrollar v\u00ednculos m\u00e1s estrechos con estados espec\u00edficos dentro de Estados Unidos para incrementar el alcance de nuestra relaci\u00f3n bilateral. A medida que la relaci\u00f3n de Chile con Estados Unidos avanza m\u00e1s hacia la inversi\u00f3n, este tipo de acuerdo da a Chile una ventaja competitiva en el desarrollo de un v\u00ednculo m\u00e1s rico basad en \u00e1reas estrat\u00e9gicas de inter\u00e9s: educaci\u00f3n, innovaci\u00f3n y agricultura en el caso de California.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">La labor del Consejo se realiza a trav\u00e9s de cuatro comit\u00e9s que se concentran en educaci\u00f3n, innovaci\u00f3n y tecnolog\u00eda, medio ambiente y desarrollo urbano, adem\u00e1s de agricultura sustentable. Agust\u00edn Huneeus, en\u00f3logo chileno que ahora est\u00e1 radicado en Napa Valley, preside el Consejo.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">El \u00e9xito m\u00e1s reciente del Consejo fue el lanzamiento de un programa de educaci\u00f3n marina a trav\u00e9s de una alianza con la Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Chile, la Universidad de Concepci\u00f3n, la Universidad de La Serena y la Wildlife Conservation Society. Financiado por la Packard Foundation of California -desarrolladores del Monterey Bay Aquarium\u2013 el programa, conocido como \u201cChile es Mar\u201d, busca desarrollar la educaci\u00f3n a fin de promover que se comprenda la importancia que tiene el mar para Chile, fomentando por lo tanto su conservaci\u00f3n y desarrollo sustentable.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">La iniciativa se lanz\u00f3 a comienzos de abril en Santiago con la presencia de Julie Packard, directora ejecutiva del Monterey Bay Aquarium, y se inici\u00f3 gracias a los esfuerzos de Isabel Vald\u00e9s, miembro del Consejo Chile-California. Las ra\u00edces de la alianza se remontan a un acuerdo suscrito entre la University of California Santa Barbara y la Wildlife Conservation Society en el 2010 en el momento del viaje del presidente Pi\u00f1era a California, un acuerdo que AmCham ayud\u00f3 a desarrollar.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">Durante la visita de mediados de abril a California, el subsecretario Flores suscribi\u00f3 un memorando de entendimiento entre la University of California Berkeley y un grupo de universidades chilenas para llevar a cabo una investigaci\u00f3n conjunta. El memorando de entendimiento, que se basa en un convenio del 2008 que ha permitido que m\u00e1s de 200 estudiantes chilenos realicen estudios de pregrado en la UC Berkeley, busca acelerar el intercambio de estudiantes, cient\u00edficos e investigadores. El programa ser\u00e1 administrado por el Center for Latin American Affairs de la UC Berkeley. Esta fue otra iniciativa lanzada a trav\u00e9s de Consejo Chile-California.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">La reuni\u00f3n incluy\u00f3 adem\u00e1s una presentaci\u00f3n del vicegobernador de California Gavin Newsom, el orador principal en el almuerzo del Consejo. El vicegobernador Newsom ha tenido una prestigiosa carrera pol\u00edtica con s\u00f3lidos antecedentes como emprendedor habiendo trabajado de manera muy efectiva en redes sociales. Su presencia en la reuni\u00f3n fue una se\u00f1al del respaldo pol\u00edtico para el acuerdo con California.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">A futuro, a\u00fan queda mucho por lograr. Nosotros en AmCham vamos a trabajar para generar oportunidades de negocios, en particular en \u00e1reas innovadoras tales como energ\u00edas renovables y biotecnolog\u00eda. Trabajando juntos en una alianza p\u00fablico-privada bajo el amparo del acuerdo Chile-California, creemos que se puede lograr mucho.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\"><STRONG>Kathleen C. Barclay es presidenta de AmCham Chile y directora de la consultora Asesor\u00edas KCB Ltda.<\/STRONG><\/P><!--:--><!--:en--><P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">&nbsp;<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">In mid-April the third annual meeting of the Chile-California Council was held in San Francisco with the attendance of Felipe Bulnes, Chile\u2019s Ambassador to the US, and Alejandro Wolff, the US Ambassador to Chile, as well as the Undersecretary of Economy, Tom\u00e1s Flores. AmCham Chile is a member of the Council and was represented by the Chamber\u2019s president, Kathleen Barclay.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">The Council, a public-private partnership of business, academic and government leaders from both California and Chile, was established in 2010 during President Pi\u00f1era\u2019s trip to California. Building on the Chile-California Plan that was initiated in 2008 by former President Michelle Bachelet, it is based on the strong ties developed in the mid-1960s between the State of California and Chile.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">The Council represents a new take on foreign relations \u2013 developing closer ties with specific states within the United States to increase the breadth and depth of our bilateral relationship. As Chile\u2019s relationship with the United States moves more towards investment, this type of agreement gives Chile a competitive advantage in developing a richer relationship based on strategic areas of interest \u2013 education, innovation and agriculture in the case of California.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">The work of the Council is completed through four committees focusing on education, innovation and technology, environment and urban development, as well as sustainable agriculture. Agust\u00edn Huneeus, a Chilean winemaker now based in Napa Valley, serves as chair of the Council.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">The Council\u2019s most recent success was the launch of a marine education program through a partnership between the Catholic University of Chile, the University of Concepci\u00f3n, the University of La Serena and the Wildlife Conservation Society. Funded by the Packard Foundation of California \u2013 developers of the Monterey Bay Aquarium&nbsp; \u2013 the program, known as \u2018Chile is the Ocean\u2019 (Chile es Mar), seeks to develop education to promote understanding of the importance of the sea to Chile, thereby promoting its conservation and sustainable development.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">The initiative was launched in early April in Santiago with the presence of Julie Packard, executive director of the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and was initiated through the efforts of Isabel Vald\u00e9s, a member of the Chile-California Council. The roots of the partnership date back to an agreement signed between UC Santa Barbara and the Wildlife Conservation Society in 2010 at the time of President Pi\u00f1era\u2019s trip to California \u2013 an agreement that AmCham helped to develop.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">During the mid-April visit to California, Undersecretary Flores signed a Memorandum of Understanding between UC Berkeley and a group of Chilean universities to carry out joint research. The MoU, which builds on a 2008 agreement that has enabled more than 200 Chilean students to pursue graduate studies at UC Berkeley, seeks to accelerate the exchange of students, scientists, and researchers. The program will be administered by UC Berkeley\u2019s Center for Latin American Affairs. This was another initiative launched through the Chile-California Council.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">The meeting also included a presentation by California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom, the keynote speaker at the Council\u2019s lunch. Lt. Governor Newsom has had a prestigious political career with a strong background as an entrepreneur having worked very effectively with social media. His presence at the meeting was an indication of the political support for the agreement from California.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">Looking to the future, there is much yet to be accomplished. We at AmCham will be working to build business opportunities, particularly in innovative areas such as renewable energy and biotechnology. Working together in a public-private partnership under the umbrella of the Chile-California agreement, we believe that much can be achieved.<\/P><br \/>\n<P style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\"><STRONG>Kathleen C.
