A modern economy

Castilla y León also provides opportunities for those who want to learn the Spanish language and gain work experience at the same time. The economy in the region, which has progressively become oriented towards the industrial and services sectors, has experienced a tremendous evolution over the past 20 years. It has excellent facilities and communication links, and a high degree of specialisation in the agricultural-food and automotive industries. Many of the local companies are also making tremendous progress on the international markets.

Castilla y León has two technology parks (Valladolid and León) and offers important development opportunities in future industries such as aeronautics and biotechnology. The region also stands out for its production of renewable energy sources, and especially of wind power. In short, an open and modern economy with a bright and promising future.
