At the Euro-Atlantic crossroads, the autonomous Basque Country has reinvented itself from an industrial hub of metallurgy and shipbuilding into a center of innovation, digitalization, and sustainable energy. With a projected economic growth rate of 2% in 2025 – nearly three times higher than that of the Eurozone – the region is establishing itself as a global leader by strengthening ties with the EU and the US.
Bilbao’s bustling port and financial sector, Vitoria-Gasteiz’s administration, and San Sebastián’s captivating allure form the core of this dynamic region. But its true growth potential lies in the Basque Country’s commitment to fostering an entrepreneurial ecosystem around creativity and technological advancement. This visionary attitude goes hand in hand with the region’s focus on the circular economy and advances in eco-innovation.
By transforming itself into a modern center of opportunity, the Basque Country is demonstrating how tradition and progress can work in harmony to lead the world into a more sustainable and innovative era.
