Argentine writer Samanta Schweblin has won the first Aena Hispano-American Narrative Prize, worth 1 million euros, for her short story collection 'El buen mal' published by Seix Barral. The award recognizes the best book in Spanish published in 2025 in the Hispanic world. Finalists Héctor Abad Faciolince, Nona Fernández, Marcos Giralt Torrente, and Enrique Vila-Matas each received 30,000 euros at the gala in Barcelona's Museu Marítim.
Spain's Aena won the Galeão International Airport repactuation auction in Rio de Janeiro with a R$ 2.9 billion bid, exceeding the minimum by 210.9%. The company now operates 18 airports across five regions in Brazil, including Congonhas in São Paulo. Former Infraero legal director Gilvandro Araújo likened Aena to a 'new Spanish Infraero'.
