Unicaja Banco reinforces its support to the business and entrepreneurial fabric in Andalusia by sponsoring the 6th edition of the Andalucía Emprende Awards, whose provincial phase in Jaen took place yesterday. The goal of these awards is to recognize, one more year, 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.

 

This year, the awarded Jaén companies have been ‘Moonlight Games’, a cooperative of young entrepreneurs working in the development of indie videogames, and ‘Tunegocioenfotos.com’, a network of photographers specializing in spaces, shops, companies and installations and offering their services online. The first one 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 part of the 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 21 Jaen 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.

 

The Andalucía Emprende Awards, promoted by Department of Employment, Training and Entreprenurship of the Regional Government of Andalusia, through the Andalucía Emprende Foundation, are currently in their provincial phase in the different Andalusia provinces.
