Unicaja Banco reinforces its support to the business and entrepreneurial fabric in Andalusia by sponsoring the V edition of the Andalucía Emprende Awards, whose provincial phase in Sevilla took place yesterday.

As part of the prize, both companies will have their own stand to promote their services in the Andalusia Entrepreneur’s Day, and they will also participate as finalists in the regional phase of the competition, which will be held on the same day.
