Investor Relations & Capital Introduction in Valencia

Valencia is Spain's third-largest city and one of its fastest-growing startup hubs, with strengths in logistics, retail, automotive, food and health. For founders, it offers experienced business families, a major port and a lower-cost base than Madrid or Barcelona.

Why Valencia Matters for Capital Raising

Mercadona, Spain's largest supermarket chain, was founded in the Valencia area in 1977, and its founder backs the Lanzadera accelerator, one of Spain's most active startup programmes.

The Port of Valencia is one of the busiest container ports in the Mediterranean, and Ford operates a major vehicle plant at nearby Almussafes.

The University of Valencia, founded in 1499, and the Polytechnic University of Valencia supply engineering and health talent to a growing technology community.
