Up! Euskadi
Interactive platform for the Basque Entrepreneurship Ecosystem
The Basque Government, through the SPRI Group, in its efforts to promote entrepreneurship as one of the key endeavours to generate employment, wealth and innovation in the territory, has launched its own online database for the Basque Entrepreneurship Ecosystem.
The new Up!Euskadi platform, based on innovative machine learning and data engineering technology, provides valuable information, gives visibility to startups and all the agents of the Ecosystem, and positions the Basque Country as a Hub for advanced entrepreneurship.
Startups, investors or ecosystem agents can add their organisation's details and enhance their profile by providing open access to their information for the entire community.
It is developed in partnership with Dealroom, the leading provider of data intelligence linked to technology ecosystems in Europe and the world. It also offers a global vision of the ecosystem, its evolution and the real impact of the policies implemented.
A key source of intelligence, which will foster the connections necessary for startup development and cross-industry knowledge sharing.
