The Department of Employment, Development and Local Promotion has convened the fifteenth edition of the Entrepreneurial Ideas Competition.

Mª Jesús Pinto highlighted the "important work" committed by the collaborating entities. "Without them," he said, "it would be very difficult to carry out the competition."

It intends to be the necessary "impulse" for the creation of companies and the promotion of employment in our municipality. Pinto has encouraged, finally, to participate to "all entrepreneurs who have a viable idea" and have remembered that many of the winning initiatives in their day "today are companies that are working".

Josep Llorca indicated that this is a prize to which he is "very fond" because young projects are presented as his association that "can be reality" in a short space of time. Francisco Juan has shown all the support of Invat-tur to the winning projects in their first steps. Mª José Tent stressed that "this type of initiative can help make visible great talents". Francesc Pérez recalled the will of the Obra Social 'La Caixa' to "support talent and those who need it most". Finally, Joanquín Alcázar asked participants in this "consolidated contest" to "focus their creativity on defining new companies" to give greater consistency to the local business fabric.

Regarding the prizes, the first is 2,500 euros and an iPad; the second, 1,500 and an iPad Mini.
