The return of Valencian talent: a strategic lever for regional growth

June 11, 2025

Bringing talent back to strengthen the business ecosystem

International talent mobility has been a defining trend over recent decades. However, in a context of economic and territorial transformation, the return of expatriate professionals represents a strategic opportunity to strengthen local business ecosystems.

Catenon is leading a programme designed to facilitate the return of Valencian professionals with international experience, focusing on strategic sectors such as agribusiness, tourism, logistics and industry.

Driving return with real impact

Under the leadership of Pablo Olmos Zúnica, Managing Director Levante, the programme supports professionals seeking to apply their expertise in high-impact roles without giving up the quality of life offered by the Valencian region.

This approach enables organisations to leverage international experience and apply it to locally rooted projects with global ambition.

A hub strengthened by local and international talent

The growth of the Valencian ecosystem is supported both by returning expatriates and by attracting international talent. This combination strengthens regional competitiveness, diversifies capabilities and reinforces key sectors for economic development.
