SEVILLA’S SOFTLANDING GUIDE
Seville, with its streets filled with history, its iconic monuments, and its deep-rooted traditions, has always been a jewel in the heart of Andalusia. Recognized internationally, this city shines not only for its rich cultural and tourist heritage but also as the epicenter of innovation and technological development in Spain.
Over the past decade, Seville has experienced significant growth in the technological sector, emerging as a fundamental hub for startups and entrepreneurs. This metamorphosis has been possible thanks to the drive of local and private institutions, which have recognized the city’s potential and have committed to turning it into a national technological hub.
Seville currently has more than 70 technology startups operating in the world, some of them leaders in their sectors such as Galgus or Cover Manager, among others. More than 250 million euros in investment, generating more than 2,000 highly qualified jobs and placing the city among the leading cities for the development of technological startups.
The blend of tradition and modernity makes Seville an ideal environment to attract international talent. Professionals in the tech and digital world find not only inspiration in their surroundings here, but also a vast availability of resources and support that facilitate the realization of their projects.
Seville’s offer is clear: a space where history and the avant-garde go hand in hand, fostering a unique breeding ground for innovation. Companies and talents looking for a place to settle, grow, and thrive will find in Seville an attractive destination, full of opportunities and with a promising future on the technological horizon.
From the historic and pioneering city of Seville, I am pleased to extend a warm invitation to those visionaries and leaders of technological innovation who are looking for a destination to start or expand their startups. Seville, with its rich tradition and heritage, is undergoing constant transformation and evolution, becoming a magnet for emerging businesses and bright minds seeking to make their entrepreneurial dreams a reality.
The Chamber of Commerce of Seville has been a pioneer and leader in promoting an environment conducive to business growth. We are deeply committed to the training, support, and guidance of companies in their early stages. Our specialized team offers a wide range of services, from company creation, adaptation to local regulations, to the internationalization of their operations, ensuring that Seville is not just a starting point, but a launchpad to the world.
New initiatives that we set out to develop are aimed at representing the image of the entrepreneur in society, boosting economic development, and carrying out service provision actions, always in close collaboration with the Administration, without forgetting the importance of an entrepreneurial culture that allows for greater economic activity.
