Málaga TechPark: the new high-tech capital of Southern Europe
Built for (inter)national microchip, tech, and scientific innovations
An inspiring environment for research, development, and innovation
Malaga, with its 250 sunny days annually, rich culture, and strong international connectivity, has emerged as a prime location for both national and international high-tech and scientific companies. The Málaga TechPark has been pivotal in this growth, recently celebrating 30 years of fostering innovation. Home to over 25,000 skilled professionals and 700+ innovative firms, the park hosts the University of Málaga as one of its key players and is the global headquarters of the International Association of Science Parks and Areas of Innovation (IASP) and the Association of Science and Technology Parks of Spain (APTE).
Technologists of the future and cutting-edge research
Málaga is rapidly emerging as a leading Spanish technology cluster, driven by strategic planning, coordinated local efforts, and strong investment from government, organisations, and an ambitious community. Its high-tech ecosystem brings together start-ups, SMEs, and global leaders across software, microchips, cybersecurity, robotics, AI, and data engineering, reflecting a diverse, inclusive innovation culture. Málaga TechPark anchors this momentum with advanced R&D centres, particularly in cybersecurity. The city’s success has drawn major players such as Google, Oracle, and Huawei, alongside prestigious hubs like La Caixa’s DayOne, Babel’s Cybersecurity Global Hub, and Capgemini’s Cybersecurity and Cloud division. Additionally, the Research Results Transfer Office (RRTO) works to connect Malaga University’s research with industry, promoting collaboration and participation in European projects to further technological advancement.
Business collaboration
One of Málaga TechPark’s greatest strengths is its close relationship with talent and research, enabled by its proximity to the University of Málaga (UMA). The park actively links students, researchers, and industry professionals, creating partnerships that fuel innovation. UMA plays a central role, collaborating with businesses on research initiatives and joint projects that advance technological and scientific understanding. Its research groups and specialised laboratories span high-tech fields and advanced materials. The University provides this talent through more than 40,000 students and 20 Faculties and Higher Education Centers. Through this multidisciplinary ecosystem, UMA is shaping the future of technology.
Global microelectronics cluster
Málaga TechPark is emerging as a global microelectronics cluster, driving Europe’s shift towards advanced computing and intelligent systems. Its ecosystem supports applications ranging from autonomous vehicles and IoT technologies to large-scale data analytics, supercomputing, quantum research, AI, and microchip design. The University of Málaga’s Microelectronic Design Group, a long-standing leader in the field, continues to pioneer sensor innovation and integrated circuit development. A defining milestone is the arrival of IMEC, which will establish the Málaga Chip Innovation Centre, its first site outside Belgium, strengthening Spain’s semiconductor value chain and meeting global demand for breakthroughs in medicine, photonics, quantum technologies, and augmented reality.
Connecting spaces, innovation, and capital
Entrepreneurs are at the heart of Málaga TechPark’s ecosystem. The park supports the growth of new ventures through six business incubators, designed to accelerate business and turn promising ideas into successful enterprises. To ensure a perfect fit for every company, Málaga TechPark also provides personalised consultancy and advisory services. The collaborative TechPark contains the #eCityMálaga project with Endesa and the Málaga City Council. eCityMalaga serves as a blueprint for the cities of the future – an urban benchmark for sustainability and circularity. Cross-disciplinary initiatives and collaborations place Málaga firmly on the map as a European leader in innovation, shaping the technologies that will power tomorrow’s digital world.
