Now in its second edition, the Invest in Spain Summit has established itself as a strategic initiative by the Government of Spain to strengthen the country´s position as a preferred destination for foreign direct investment. The event brings CEOs from over 75 multinational companies from 25 different countries together with the economic and innovation representatives of Spain´s Administration.

Furthermore, it ranks as the EU’s leading recipient of greenfield projects in the first quarter of 2026.

More than 22,000 foreign-owned companies operate in Spain, generating around two million jobs in strategic sectors such as technology, energy, sustainable mobility and life sciences.
