Banco Sabadell reinforces its commitment to startups by launching BStartup Hub Madrid
BStartup
At Banco Sabadell we continue to boost innovation and entrepreneurship in Spain. Our leadership in the startups segment has been further consolidated with the opening of the first hub 100% dedicated to the entrepreneurial ecosystem: BStartup Hub Madrid. This is how we celebrated its launch!
A space created with startups and scale-ups in mind
On 2 December, BStartup Hub Madrid opened its doors to the public at 65 Calle Núñez de Balboa. This new location boasts more than 600m2 designed to foster collaboration, networking and innovation.
Financial solutions for your startup adapted to whatever stage your company is in.
Our team of eight relationship managers specialising in startups and scale-ups will offer you advice about the financing and banking services that are best suited to you as you grow and your needs change.
There you will also be able to get in touch with our VC investment team.
A new space for Madrid’s entrepreneurial ecosystem
This space is more than just a financial centre, it is also a location where members of Madrid’s entrepreneurial ecosystem can come together and discuss common interests.
We also want it to be a place where you can work whenever you need a meeting room or a hot desk to meet up with your investors or clients. That is why we offer you:
- Fully equipped meeting rooms for your meetings with partners, investors and clients.
- Hot desks for individual work in a professional setting.
- An auditorium/forum with room for 60 people, where open events will be held on innovation and entrepreneurship.
Looking to the future: BStartup Hub Barcelona in 2025
Banco Sabadell’s commitment to startups does not stop in Madrid. In 2025, we will be launching our BStartup Hub Barcelona, thus expanding our support network for innovative companies. With 60% of Spain’s tech startups located in Madrid and Barcelona, these hubs are key pieces to step up the country’s entrepreneurial ecosystem.
Furthermore, in cities such as Valencia, Bilbao, San Sebastian and Seville, BStartup already has specialised teams that offer services tailored to the specific needs of these companies.
A decade of experience supporting startups
Since it was first created in 2013, BStartup has been evolving to become the leading financial ally for startups in Spain. Over the past 11 years, we have supported more than 5,500 startups and invested in 96 companies through our equity programme.
In the words of Carlos Ventura, General Manager and Business Banking & Network Director of Banco Sabadell: “These new spaces are the result of our ongoing specialisation efforts that began over a decade ago. We believed that big corporations would emerge from young companies, and we were not wrong”.
José Manuel Candela, Assistant General Manager and Head of Banco Sabadell’s Central Territorial Division, noted that: “The BStartup Hub Madrid was conceived to respond to the growth of startups and scale-ups in the capital and to the trust that they have placed in us. We want this space to be a landmark for Madrid’s entrepreneurial ecosystem”.
