The Government of Córdoba, through the Ministry of Production, Science and Technological Innovation, opens the Entrepreneurial Ideas Contest 2026, an initiative aimed at supporting and strengthening productive projects that are already operational and have the potential to take a new step in their growth process.
The call is directed at individuals engaged in activities in the sectors of industry, mining, commerce, and services, who present proposals related to the creation of new products, process improvements, technology incorporation, the development of new business units, or initiatives with potential for innovation and impact.
The goal is to recognize and strengthen projects capable of generating value, increasing competitiveness, creating jobs, and contributing to the productive development of the different regions of Córdoba.
