Scale your startup with advisors who speak tech

Spain’s technology sector is experiencing unprecedented expansion. With nearly 45,655 active companies and more than 566,956 workers registered with Social Security, the digital ecosystem has accumulated aggregate revenue of €56.9 billion, cementing Madrid and Barcelona as leading European hubs. The sector’s share of the European Union market stands at 4.7% — a figure that, in relative terms, signals enormous opportunity: Spain has significant room to grow technologically compared with Germany, France or the Netherlands, and the conditions — the Startup Law, a qualified talent pool and competitive living costs — are favourable for capturing that differential.

The figure that should matter most to any founder or investor is the five-year survival rate: 34.9%, which reflects the high demands of the technology market and the importance of building on solid foundations from day one. The average gross margin of 10.3% indicates that many companies in the sector compete on high-volume models or invest aggressively in growth before scaling profitability — making tax and financial planning that anticipates investment cycles and exit moments indispensable.

At BMC we accompany startups and technology companies at every stage of their lifecycle. From company incorporation and shareholder agreement design through seed and Series A round structuring, employee equity plan management and tax planning ahead of an exit. Our team combines expertise in corporate finance, commercial law and international tax to deliver integrated advisory that understands the language and needs of the digital ecosystem.

R&D tax deductions, Startup Law incentives, public grant management (CDTI, ENISA, European funds) and VAT optimisation for cross-border digital services are areas where we deliver tangible, measurable value. We also advise on data protection compliance, digital regulatory matters and technology contract structuring to ensure your company’s growth is built on solid foundations.
