Spain–Central Asia Business Gateway

Central Asia focus · South Caucasus gateway

From regional opportunity to Spanish execution.

SCABG identifies and prepares business and public-sector opportunities in Central Asia. We qualify the need, sponsor, decision path and project stage, then connect suitable opportunities with Spanish companies and, where relevant, Spain’s internationalisation ecosystem.

SCABG is an independent private-sector platform. All engagement remains subject to each company’s or institution’s own assessment.

Regional scope

Central Asia at the core. The South Caucasus as a distinct gateway.

Central Asia is our core market focus. The South Caucasus is a distinct strategic gateway.

Our current public evidence base is in Uzbekistan. SCABG’s wider regional development scope includes Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan, with capability developed according to verified local access and project flow. In the South Caucasus, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia are treated as distinct gateway markets.

What SCABG does

A disciplined route from first signal to a prepared opportunity.

We do the early-stage work that makes a regional need understandable and assessable from the Spanish side.

Originate

Identify a real opportunity with a real sponsor or decision-maker.

Qualify

Test the need, counterpart, project stage and decision pathway.

Prepare

Convert local demand into a structured project brief and evidence set.

Match

Identify the appropriate Spanish technical, operating or financial capability.

Coordinate

Maintain the local workstream through data, meetings and preparation.

Hand over

Transfer the prepared opportunity to the relevant companies or institutions for their own assessment and execution.

Who we work with

Three audiences. One preparation standard.

The entry point changes. The discipline does not: verified need, accountable sponsor, clear stage and a defined decision required from the Spanish side.

How the model works in practice

Selected Opportunities in Development

SCABG is not built around theoretical market access. The platform is already supporting live opportunity origination, qualification and project preparation across Central Asia. These examples illustrate different stages of the process—from institutional origination and technical qualification to structured preparation and Spanish partner engagement.

Project names and counterparties are anonymised where required by confidentiality or where formal public disclosure has not yet been agreed.

Institutional interface

Designed to interface with Spain’s internationalisation ecosystem—not to speak for it.

SCABG prepares local opportunities so they can be assessed by the appropriate Spanish companies and, where relevant, by Spain’s public internationalisation ecosystem. Each company and institution retains its own mandate, eligibility criteria and decision-making authority.

ICEX and the OFECOMES network

Internationalisation services, market intelligence and in-market support.

FIEM

Official financing for eligible Spanish export and investment operations, subject to its own assessment and approval.

COFIDES

Financing for viable overseas investment projects with Spanish interest.

CESCE

Export-credit and investment-risk cover.

ICO

Financing and, where applicable, financial-agent functions.

MAEC and Spanish embassies

Political and institutional relations and economic diplomacy.

SCABG

Early-stage opportunity origination, local sponsor qualification and project preparation.

SCABG has no authority to represent, commit or imply endorsement by any Spanish public body.

Strategic context

Spain’s Asia-Pacific Strategy 2026–2029 expressly includes Central Asia within its geographic scope. SCABG independently develops a private origination model consistent with this wider context.

This alignment does not imply affiliation, mandate or institutional endorsement. The South Caucasus is treated separately and is not presented as part of that strategy’s geographic scope.
