Tech in Andorra: who's who, grants and startups

Questions about the ecosystem usually come in this order: who gives grants, where to work from, where to study and how to set up a startup.

If you're going to work from a shared space, the coworking guide compares the spaces there are, where they're and what each includes. It also explains the rules they have followed since Decret 249/2024.

Andorra Business is the economic development agency. For a tech company it's the first door to knock on. It manages grants, supports startups and keeps a national catalogue of ICT suppliers.

Its 2026 grants pay up to 80% of the cost of services bought in to internationalise, innovate, streamline or become more sustainable. The maximum is €6,000 per beneficiary.

This year's two rounds share a budget of €180,000, according to the notice published in the BOPA (Andorra's official gazette). The second round ran from 23 September to 30 October 2026.

As of 29 October the 2027 round had not been published, so check andorrabusiness.com for a new one. Applications are made online with a digital signature.

Other lines are closed. The R&D incentives for local companies, worth €1,000,000, closed applications on 15 September. The Andorra Digital business digitalisation programme for this year is also closed.

Andorra has had a legal status for startups since Llei 42/2022. It gives tax advantages to people paid in shares and removes the annual registry fee. The tech business page covers it, with the requirements.

The directory lists eleven local startups with their websites, from artificial intelligence to virtual reality. The second edition of Enlaira, a startup programme, received 14 applications. Train French Tech 2026 had 26 startups, four of them from Andorra.

Andorra Business scheduled its fourth startup workshop, the bootcamp ‘De la idea a la inversió’, for 7 and 14 November, fully paid for by the agency.

On the same page it announces an incubation programme planned for 2027, with no published rules as of 29 October. Other meetups are in events.

ACTINN is the country's network of tech companies. It says it has more than 90 member companies and professionals. Each year it hands out the ACTINN Awards, and in their 7th edition the prize is €5,000.

The Cambra de Comerç, Indústria i Serveis and the Confederació Empresarial Andorrana represent companies in general, tech ones included.

To find a specific supplier, start with the Andorra Business ICT catalogue and our company directory. The directory links only to public sources.

There are three coworking spaces in the directory, in Andorra la Vella and Escaldes-Engordany. The coworking guide compares what each one includes. Since Decret 249/2024 these spaces have their own regularisation procedure on e-tràmits.

If you're coming to work from here for a few months, the tech jobs page explains which permit fits your case.

The Universitat d'Andorra has a bachelor in Computing, a double bachelor in Computing and Business Administration, and a master's in Data Analytics. In vocational training, the Batxillerat Professional offers one diploma in software development and another in computer systems and networks.

The Batxillerat Professional totals 2,000 hours of training. The training centres are listed in the directory.

For companies looking for staff, this is the local talent pool. For everyone else, the tech jobs page explains pay and permits.

Andorra's tech calendar is short. The INNTEC Days reach their 10th edition this year. Andorra Business has been at 4YFN, the startup fair held in Barcelona every March, six years in a row. ACTINN hands out its annual awards. Everything with dates is in events.

There's no official figure for the size of the sector. The Department of Statistics doesn't publish ICT employment or the number of ICT companies separately. Andorra Business and AR+I don't publish total turnover either.

Any figure you read on the weight of tech in Andorra is an estimate with no official source.
