What evaluation criteria are applied?

The evaluation criteria for productive investment projects in Catalonia are exhaustive and are designed to promote initiatives with a positive impact on the local economy and sustainability.
A higher score is given to micro and small enterprises, as well as to projects that generate a significant number of jobs. Projects that are developed in specific regions are also positively valued, favouring decentralisation and the balanced development of the territory.
Sustainability and innovation are crucial factors in evaluation. Additional points are awarded to projects that significantly reduce water consumption in the production process, contribute to decarbonisation through the use of clean energies, and promote the circular economy. In addition, the commitment to gender equality is valued, awarding extra points to production centres with more than 50% of women in their workforce. These criteria reflect the Generalitat's commitment to a sustainable, innovative and inclusive industrial development model, which seeks to strengthen the Catalan business fabric while promoting responsible and equitable practices.
