The updated version of the Investment Map in Argentina, which has just been published by the Argentine Investment and International Trade Agency (AAICI), leaves in black on white that today the country is attractive for investors especially in the field of non-conventional hydrocarbons, mining, renewable energy, telecommunications and real estate development.
