July,5th 2013 ,Bill Approved Assurance Market Unit

The law, aimed at ensuring the free movement of goods and services throughout the country

• "Any product or service produced under any regional regulations may be offered at any point in Spanish territory without modification or additional procedure.
  The establishment of this principle immediately eliminates the cost of having to undergo seventeen different regulations to operate in Spain"

IMPORTANT: September, 19th 2013, Bill Approved "Entrepreneur Law"...Check this section shortly. It has to be published officially, then the law will be valid.

The project of the bill said....

"There is scope to improve the environment for research, development and innovation, as well as the use of information technology and communications, essential for the growth and competitiveness of a country. The research and development effort in the private sector .... is lower than in neighboring countries, and in a context of budget constraint like this, it is essential to create a framework that encourages private investment in this area.

International markets are a key source of growth in a context of globalization characterized by an integration of growing markets.

The economic crisis has shown the best performance of internationalized firms and the importance of internationalization as a growth and diversification of risk. Internationalized firms experience productivity gains, improved management, better ability to access funding and are ultimately have the greatest ability to grow and create jobs. Internationalization reveals more than ever as a key driver of long-term economic growth of the Spanish economy for its relation to the competitiveness and productivity gains.

In addition, international flows are changing much faster than our administration has been willing to adapt in recent years. Companies need to develop specific policies and practices to support its expansion in other countries and the government should adjust its processes to support these movements globally. In this sense, the number of professionals and managers  with the skills to manage business internationalization is, in some cases, insufficient and it is necessary for foreign professionals in very specific areas come to train them in Spain or Spain formed."
