Zorrotzaurre, a new investment focus in the city
One of the areas with the greatest investment potential is the urban island of Zorrotzaurre, the last major urban regeneration operation launched in Bilbao. It is a space well connected to the rest of the city, and it has large areas where companies that carry out non-polluting activities can be installed. Above all, for digital activities such as biotechnology, advanced technology, creative industries and innovative or advanced services, and where it is sought to emphasize the employment of groups with greater difficulties in finding a job. The aim of the Bilbao City Council is to make this area of the city a benchmark in innovation focused on new knowledge and the latest technologies.
With this purpose, the island of Zorrotzaurre will have two innovation parks with 19 buildings for innovative processes: the Punta Norte Urban Technology Park with five plots of 34,000 m2 of building space for tertiary and commercial use, and the Punta Sur Urban Technology Park with another five more plots of around 81,000 m2 of buildable area for both tertiary and commercial use.
