Lucas Salim is a businessman from Córdoba who is making a strong bet on the country.
As the leader of Grupo Proaco and the development company of the same name, with 15 years of experience, he stands out in Córdoba both for his strategic vision and his execution capacity.
However, he is also an active Twitter user who defends the direction that theJavier Milei administration is giving the country in economic matters, where he highlights the idea of a small state, the continuity of fiscal balance, the reduction of inflation, and setting a definitive limit to Kirchnerist policies and corruption.

Salim promotes his ideas on social media, which more than once has led him to confront Kirchnerists and their trolls.
“It is impossible to talk to Buenos Aires residents on this social network, those who vote for Kirchnerism, 70% can't read and the 30% who learned to read do not have the ability to understand a text. Just in case, Kirchnerism NEVER AGAIN. Small state, fiscal balance, and condemnation of corruption, of thieving politicians, and of the 'Empresaurios' who are accomplices to the theft," he wrote.
"May God enlighten Argentina on Sunday and hopefully the kukas lose for the good of Argentina. I have a lot of hope in the youth vote and their influence on parents and grandparents!” he added.

He then dedicated himself to responding to each of the replies he received.
“Thieves, prisoners, convicts, drug addicts, bribe-takers are the only things Kirchnerism offers. If you understand the text, I imagine you do not vote for everything I just wrote, otherwise you must have some scam to defend and I understand you,” he replied to a user.
“I am a businessman and I give my opinion like any citizen, I have never been in politics, but I am clear that the worst filth in Argentina gathers in Kirchnerism, which uses the banners of minorities to buy votes and keep stealing,” he added.
Salim's reaction after the election results in Buenos Aires
After the defeat of the ruling party's candidates and the victory of those nominated by Buenos Aires governor Axel Kiciloff, which led to an increase in country risk and a rise in the dollar, among other issues, Salim returned to the fray.

“They defecate in a bucket and vote for those who rob them to their faces. They are ignorant, they are crude, they are poor because of how they vote, but they are used to the political 'boss' giving them a metal sheet and that is enough for them. Greater Buenos Aires is a sewer in every sense, today the caste, the media, the scams, and the theft win," he wrote.
"Well, decisions must be made. This is Argentina, which you would never understand… Iwish Buenos Aires residents 25% inflation, shortages, more child malnutrition so that next time they learn how to vote,” he said, receiving more than a thousand reposts and as many replies.
He later clarified his statements by asserting in another tweet that he did not mean to offend, but to highlight the harsh reality of Greater Buenos Aires.
"I do not hate Greater Buenos Aires. It hurts me. Because they do not deserve to live among mud, neglect, and empty promises. I used the example of child malnutrition to illustrate how serious it is to keep voting for models that destroy our future. It was harsh, yes. But it is harsher that thousands of children go hungry while politics repeats the same lies. I believe in work, education, and effort. I do not want to offend, I want to awaken. If what I said bothered you, imagine what it is like to live it every day…"
Lucas Salim: "It may be the moment for a change of cycle"
In a recent interview with La Derecha Diario Córdoba, Salim expressed confidence that this may be the moment for the country to take off with Javier Milei at the helm.
"The truth is that we are learning to do business again in an Argentina that was coming from extremely complicated situations to be able to manage businesses, there were no prices," he said.
"I believe it may be the moment for a change of cycle. Everything we have been seeing, these reforms, the lifting of currency controls, the elimination of the rental law which was disastrous... all these conditions are beginning to create an optimal moment for the sector to start generating jobs,” he added.
He also stated that businesspeople can't blame the 'macro' and the Government's decisions.
In a self-critical tone, he said: “We have to think about what things we do well and what things we do poorly and how we improve them, especially to give more access to housing to Argentines who, as a result of decades and decades of macroeconomic disaster, have been left without that possibility.”
Regarding the current situation, the head of Proaco stated that he sees favorable conditions.
“With the improvement in real wages that is happening and the return of mortgage credit, may this make it so that for the first time in 50 years we begin to produce the amount of housing that Argentines will need in the future,” he indicated.
