One-liner: small municipal grants (max €2,500) for productive investments by businesses started in 2023-2025, restricted to people empadronados in València for five years.
Key facts (from Economía 3, 2 Sep 2026; Junta de Gobierno Local approval)
- Who: autonomos, entrepreneurs and companies whose activity began 1 Jan 2023 to 7 Oct 2025 and continues. Applicant must be registered (empadronado) in València and show 5 years' residence (reference 1 Jan 2016). New requirement versus earlier calls.
- Eligible spend: investments made from 9 Jul 2025 up to publication of the call in the city's electronic notice board.
- Award: order of submission until funds run out, so timing matters. Compatible with other municipal grants.
- Councillor: José Gosálbez (Emprendimiento), who framed it as backing people who live and pay taxes in the city.
Why it matters for the Brain
Low value for venture-backed founders: small, residence-gated, tied to already-incurred spend. Relevant for local micro-businesses and bootstrapped founders who are long-term residents. Foreign-founder and newly arrived teams are excluded by the 5-year rule.
Status
#status/verify: BOP publication date and the actual call text (sede.valencia.es) not found, so the window dates are unconfirmed. 20-day window from a September approval implies it closed in Sep/Oct. Recheck for a 2027 edition.
