Avilés Town of Science and Innovation
Avilés received the “Town of Science and Innovation” award by the Spanish government for its investment in technological, scientific and social innovative structures.
Around the town of Avilés (located in the north coast of Spain) lies one of the biggest industrial concentrations in the country with the presence of multinational companies from the steel, crystal, zinc, aluminium, fertilizers, and chemical derivatives sectors (ARCELORMITTAL, SAINT GOBAIN, XTRATA-GLENCORE, ALCOA, FERTIBERIA, DUPONT,…). The environment is favourable for new entrepreneurial initiatives.
Avilés Isla de la Innovación is located near an active harbour (www.puertoaviles.es) and is well connected by the airport- just 15 minutes away from the town. Besides, the park is well communicated by highway with the main cities of the region and other industrial areas.
The Park offers a business incubator for new companies established in the town. The infrastructures include offices and other premises adapted to any kind of business initiative.
The offered services include expert business counselling, help in accessing financial credit, networking and meeting rooms for conferences and business presentations.
