Spain–Central Asia Business Gateway
Central Asia focus · South Caucasus gateway
From regional opportunity to Spanish engagement.
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.
The project examples currently presented on this website relate to Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. SCABG’s wider Central Asian development scope also includes 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.
Engagement model
How engagement works
Open access — no charge
The opportunity catalogue is open to any company. For a specific opportunity you can request a Project Profile: a structured summary of what the project is, what the source states, what remains to be confirmed, and where international capability may be relevant. No charge, no obligation.
Preparation — fixed fee
When a company decides to pursue a specific opportunity, SCABG prepares it: clarifying scope with the regional side, confirming the counterpart and the decision pathway, and assembling the information the company needs to take its own position. This work is contracted, with a fixed fee agreed before it begins and normally paid in stages.
Implementation — carried out by others
SCABG does not implement. Once an opportunity is prepared, delivery is contracted directly between the company and the implementing party: a partner firm, an adviser, or the company's own organisation. SCABG coordinates the handover and remains available for continuity, but is not a party to the delivery contract and does not perform the work.
Documents. The catalogue is open. A Project Profile is issued on receipt of a short expression of interest stating who the company is, what it does and in which role it would consider participating; the expression of interest is non-binding. A short mutual confidentiality agreement is signed when a company asks to be introduced to the project counterpart. Preparation itself is governed by a structuring mandate, signed before work begins, which sets out scope, fee, timing and the position of each party. SCABG is not a party to any subsequent delivery contract.
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.
Local project-development capability
Implementation partners
SCABG hands prepared opportunities over to implementing parties. In selected markets KHESH GRUPO (Madrid) is one of them, providing local project-development capability, stakeholder access and coordination on the ground. KHESH GRUPO is a separate company: SCABG does not act on its behalf, and it does not act on SCABG's.
