Analysis of the performance of startups in the Basque Country's technological entrepreneurship ecosystem compared to other ecosystems
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
The Basque Country's technological entrepreneurship ecosystem is a dynamic and innovative ecosystem that has been growing in recent years, generating collaborative dynamics that involve universities, research centres, large corporations, Startups and the Public Administration itself, in addition to BAT B Accelerator Tower as the main unifying project of the ecosystem.
As far as emerging companies are concerned, and based on those certified by ENISA in February 2025, the Basque Country has 45 certified emerging companies out of the 1,370 existing at a national level.
In this context, BAT wants to analyse the performance in terms of economic performance and growth of emerging companies in the Basque ecosystem compared to emerging companies in other reference ecosystems at a national level.
OBJECTIVES / EXPECTED OUTCOMES
The expected outcomes of this challenge are:
-
To extract the main metrics of volume and performance of the emerging companies in the Basque Country ecosystem, such as turnover, employment, share capital or the result of the year.
-
To compare the obtained metrics with similar metrics from other comparable ecosystems and obtain conclusions.
-
To cross-reference the obtained performance data with other economic variables such as the evolution of GDP, employment, etc.
-
To obtain a methodology to measure the impact generated by the BAT activity in achieving the analysed performance.
