Candour Identity is expanding into the Spanish market, a European market experiencing strong growth in technology, fintech, and digital services. With innovation hubs such as Madrid and Barcelona, Spain continues to attract investment, startups, and enterprise digitalisation — making it a relevant environment for advanced technology solutions.
Spain’s technology ecosystem has expanded rapidly in recent years, with thousands of active startups and a digital economy that now represents a significant share of national GDP. As digital onboarding and remote services become more widespread, the demand for secure, compliant, and user-friendly identity verification continues to grow across industries.
The Spanish tech and fintech ecosystem — growing and opportunity-driven
Spain has emerged as one of Europe’s most dynamic technology ecosystems, with a rapidly expanding startup base and rising venture capital activity. The fintech sector is a key contributor to this growth, with a broad range of companies operating across payments, banking and digital financial services.
Candour sees Spain as natural growth market where strong identity assurance is essential for enabling trust, meeting regulatory requirements, and delivering seamless digital experiences.
Partnering with Springboard35 to strengthen local presence
As part of its expansion, Candour Identity is working together with Springboard35 to support market entry and commercial development in Spain. Springboard35 is a B2B business development consultancy focused on helping technology companies establish and scale their presence in the Spanish market.
Valentina Rúa, Sales Manager at Springboard35, comments on the opportunity:
In Spain, organisations are increasingly focused on improving transparency, risk management, and long-term resilience. At the same time, the IAM landscape is evolving beyond its traditional strongholds and expanding into sectors that are only now beginning to formalise their approach to identity and access governance. This creates a strong opportunity for Candour. What makes this particularly exciting for us as Candour’s local team is the ability to take a consultative, methodology-led approach—working closely with organisations to understand their maturity, challenges, and priorities, and guiding them step by step towards more robust and scalable IAM practices.
