The Provincial Council of Álava announced today in Vitoria-Gasteiz the creation of a railway innovation center in Llodio and an audiovisual hub in Amurrio to boost the local economy.

The new railway innovation center in Llodio aims to improve the competitiveness of the sector. The project will be developed in collaboration with the Basque Government and several companies, adapting the successful model used in the automotive industry to the railway sector.
Meanwhile, the audiovisual hub in Amurrio, located in the Maskuribai industrial estate, aims to attract film productions and stimulate the sector. It has been confirmed that a top-tier international production company will establish its headquarters in these facilities in the coming months.
Regarding the socioeconomic situation of the region, the status of Tubos Reunidos was addressed. The provincial institution reaffirmed its commitment to support any offer that ensures the continuity of the Amurrio production center during the current insolvency proceedings.
