Andalucía HUB

A tourism and tech community you will never forget
Join us now!

Imagine that Batman takes a day away from Gotham and goes to Marbella, to the facilities of Andalucía Lab, where he meets a rather unusual community:
Tourism companies and professionals who develop via quality training and personalised consultancies.
People with a tech talent who learn from a wonderful intensive programme, and will soon revolutionise the labour market.
A co-working space where tourism digital marketing specialists work in exclusive facilities.
An exhibition space for cutting-edge technological solutions for tourism in Andalucía: best of the best.
By this point, Batman seems a bit lost… What is all this?
He’s surprised to learn that this huge community, a perfect triangle of talented people—businesses—tech solutions keeps a virtual communication using Slack.
Batman also finds out that this HUB offers:
Training for businesses and tourism/tech professionals.
Personalised consultancies by specialised professionals for the tourism/tech business.
Rental of modern rooms and spaces, highlighting a state-of-the-art auditorium.
Plus:
A Demo Lab, where businesses can interact with the most practical and suitable tech solutions.
A marketplace of projects, where companies advertise their search for talented people and talented people come to them as a solution.
A dream location on the coast of Marbella, where life quality is amazing 24/7/365 and the variety of restaurants and leisure activities astonishes locals and foreigners alike.
Can you imagine Batman's reaction? Training, consultancies, businesses, loads of talent, a wonderful talented people—businesses—tech solutions connection, first-class spaces, an unusual location for such an organisation... and all of these focused on the tourism and tech industries.

Easy: Slack.

A web service you can access from your browser, desktop or mobile - your choice - where you can:

  • Find business opportunities.

In short, this is the online channel our HUB community uses to help each other and grow.

Andalucía HUB right now (and a bit of history)

Andalucía HUB is the evolution of Andalucía Lab, which began in 2007.

Phase

1

Take-off

2007. Andalucía Lab offers training, consultancies and free content for tourism businesses. The first steps of our HUB. (Who knew we would grow so much?)

Phase

2

Calling out for technology

2012. We add technology to the HUB. We add our Demo Lab and co-working space to our services and we can connect businesses and professionals from the tourism world with others in a more technological area.

Phase

3

Here, there, and everywhere (where we are now)

2020. Internationalisation has come to stay: our HUB has more than 3,000 people and is about to go global. Our goals are to attract Andalusian talent back home, to import the best tech solutions in the world and to export tourism services abroad.

You are always our greatest star: we only make things happen for you.

What makes Andalucía Lab's HUB so special?

Short and sweet?
Everything.
Andalucía HUB is one of a kind.
We are well-known in Europe and in the rest of the world.
We have a community of professionals communicating 24/7 via Slack, free training, a physical place to work, consultancies, and a (physical and online) space where talented people—businesses—tech solutions co-exist. All in one place.
Do you know any other place where ALL THESE happen at the same time?

Some FAQs about Andalucía HUB

Register here, completely free of charge, and make a request from your personal area.

Because Andalucía Lab is financed with European funds. It may sound strange that our workshops and consultancies are free, but they are.

A collection of two things: 1) a large community around Andalucía Lab and 2) our facilities and services.

For young programmers who want to live in Andalucía (whether Andalusian or not); for technical professionals who need to update and improve their computer skills; for tourism marketing professionals who want to take the leap in their career; for small tech start-ups in need of collaborators, partners or employees; and for Andalusian tourism/tech businesses looking for talent or to take advantage of the resources Andalucía HUB offers.

As you can see, the only thing the HUB is missing is Batman.

And you!
