In no small degree, with its many new and natural endowments, 2025 appears to be an exceptional period for the technology sector in Spain. The country’s offering is a case in point. In 2022, the industry has an aggregate sales of 120 billion euros, which is about 6% more in comparison with the previous year, and this momentum is yet to decrease.
The streak began with the extremely stirring 4YFN (4 Years From Now) exhibition, which came along in March along with the famous Mobile World Congress in the same month. The event became a launching pad for digital startup entrepreneurs to not only – meet like-minded – investors and – tech lovers but also – discuss the development of new digital ecosystems. AI-created technologies were foregrounded, immediately followed by the ones that are connected with sustainability and the start of the metaverse digital marketplace.
In Madrid, the month of March was dedicated to the T3chFest conference, while the first days of April were for the CommitConf conference, with each event giving the participants two days to follow presentations, attend workshops, and talk to the big names in software development. The-conference-offered an unparalleled chance for tech people, thus, learning and building a network with industry tycoons were immensely possible.
In May, Málaga was at the forefront with two great leaders in the event sector. From May 14th to 16th the Digital Enterprise Show (DES) demonstrated that innovation has been the key that promoted the digital transformation of most industries. One of the featured session topics included tourism tech, which is a strong indication of Málaga’s rise in this field. At the same time, J On The Beach was thriving, bringing together developers, data scientists, and DevOps practitioners, who were conducting workshops, a hackathon, and giving technical presentations on none other than big data technologies.
Barcelona, with its event Shoptalk Europe, is still the indomitable force of tech events all over. The conference’s success was due to over 4,500 industry players coming to C-Suite executives from the retail and technology sectors of Europe, focusing on technology retailer enablement by the summit, giving retailers the necessary tools and skills for digital innovation.
Digital transformation as a guiding force of the society and the economy has been the Spanish government’s unwavering commitment. Spain’s Digital Spain 2026 Plan, in line with the Europe Digital Decade 2030 policy programme, set very ambitious goals for the country’s digital transformation.
Spain’s leading digital infrastructure has alongside been a key element of the (in the) attraction of foreign ICT companies and entrepreneurs. Spain tops the EU as a coverage of very high capacity networks by a wide margin where 93% of the population are connected to systems that deliver fixed network speeds exceeding 100 Mbps which is significantly more than the EU average.
The impact of the ICT sector on the economy can be proved by the fact that its impact on Spain’s GDP was 3.84% in 2022, accompanied by 35,333 national and international ICT companies directly employing 764,128 people. Exports of the sector’s goods and services rose by a good percentage by the end of 20,738 million euros, 3.8% of the total exports of Spain’s and represented.
The e-commerce market in Spain is also rapidly growing, with sales hitting 20,492 million euros in 2022, which is a 12.7% rise. The fact that the growth in the market is indicative of the increasing digitalization of Spanish companies and as well as the increasing trust of the customers to make online transactions.
Within the upcoming year, Spain will be home to a larger number of tech events that will have more impact. The Smart City Expo World Congress that will take place in Barcelona in November will be a place where urban innovators from all over the world will not only discuss the future of cities but will also be able to come together to execute projects. While closing out the year in December, the Tech Spirit Barcelona and the Health Tech Summit 2025 are going to be the perfect events for them to show the most cutting-edge healthcare technology innovations.
Spain’s impressive tech ecosystem, which is characterized by the government support, a well-equipped infrastructure, and a full year of industry-leading events, is indeed becoming a force to be reckoned with in the world tech industry. Moving through 2025, Spain is undoubtedly the point of attention as we wait to witness how this sector will finally evolve and what new things will come out of it.
