Industry Appeals
Seville was chosen for the first time as European capital of the aerospace industry, hosting in 2019 the Ministerial Council of ESA (European Space Agency) due to the relevance of its aerospace industry and for the firm commitment of the Andalusian Government (Junta), which has a Strategic Aeronautics Industry Plan that provides stability and confidence to sectoral firms. The Junta also offers companies the possibility of benefiting from the highest incentives available in the EU, and has promoted the construction of scientific and technological parks specializing in the aerospace industry: Aerópolis, Tecnobahía & PTA, CATEC, CFA and ATLAS.
Other sector areas in which Andalusia is a key player are its top-level infrastructures, great capacity to produce, assemble and launch satellites, aeronautics engineering, aerospace consultancy services and competitive costs. Furthermore, Andalusian universities offer specialization courses in key aerospace disciplines, including aeronautical engineering, making it easier for companies to access large pools of qualified professionals.
