This feature by Mª José G. Serranillos looks at how the scale-ups grouped under EsTech — the association driven by Adigital, Spaincap and Endeavor, bringing together companies such as Glovo, Job&Talent, Factorial and Cabify — are driving competitiveness and skilled employment in the Spanish economy. The article highlights the group’s latest additions, which now bring its total to 24 companies: travel agency Destinia, property portal Fotocasa, AI governance platform Alinia, and Transparent Edge, the Spanish web and application cybersecurity company.
The piece includes the perspective of Fermín Manzanedo, co-founder and CISO/COO of Transparent Edge, on the distinctive value a scale-up like Transparent Edge can offer end customers compared with the competition: “large US companies listed on Nasdaq, offering standardised solutions where the customer is just another number.” The closeness and flexibility of its product are made possible by proprietary technology built from the ground up in Europe.
