The goal of these awards is to recognize the most innovative business initiatives and with the highest growth and development potential in each province. Then, the best Andalusian company 2019 will be chosen from among the provincial winners in the regional phase of the competition.

 

‘BePro eSports’ is an online videogame company that organizes its own competitions and offers web support to third parties. ‘La Salmoreteca’ is a gastronomic concept around salmorejo, one of the main dishes of Cordoba, Andalusia and Spanish cuisine.

 

The first company has been awarded in the category ‘Creation’, for recently established business initiatives (up to three years ago); and the second one in the category ‘Consolidation’, aimed at businesses between three and seven years of history.

 

As prize, the promoters of both companies have received a technology gadget, sponsored by Programa Minerva, promoted by Junta de Andalucía and Vodafone, and they will also participate as finalists in the regional phase of the competition.

 

Unicaja Banco’s support to these awards falls within the support that the financial institution gives to the business fabric and within its interest to promote entrepreneurial initiatives in Andalusia, as well as to boost the economy and job creation in the areas where it operates.

A total of 33 Cordoba business initiatives, supported and mentored by the CADEs (Business Development Support Centers) in the province, have participated in the sixth edition of these awards, which are also a unique opportunity for networking and creating synergies between projects, organizations and institutions related to the business and innovation world.
