Last updated on 05 October 2026·Europe

Spain produced over 10 unicorns to date

Spain's entire $1B+ tech roster fits on a single slide, and half of Spain's largest tech firms have already been acquired or went public.

The country has over 10 companies currently valued at $1B+. As of October 2026, Amadeus valued at $26.7B is the largest tech company in Spain, followed by Indra Sistemas worth $26.7B, and Allfunds valued at $6.6B.

What are the unicorns of Spain?

This ranking includes Spanish tech companies valued above $1 billion. It includes private, public and acquired companies. Most private valuations are last reported or recently rumoured.

On ZIRP-era (2020-2022) valuations: we exclude companies that latest reported valuation would be enough to hit the list, but it is expected that the company is now valued significantly lower.

Today, among the top three GDS operators that control nearly 100% of industry sales, Amadeus' 40%-plus market share ranks as the largest. Overall, Amadeus’ GDS segment represented 48% of total in 2024. Moreover, the company has an expanding IT solutions division (52% of 2024 revenue) that addresses the airline, airport, rail, hotel, and travel agency markets.

Data and methodology

Underlying data

Public markets data is powered by FactSet (consensus analyst estimates), and Morningstar (historical data). Data points are calendarized to December where relevant: retrieved data on financial year ends (e.g. FY, FY+1 etc.) are mapped to calendar years (2025A, 2026E etc.) before the appropriate month weights are then applied to prior/future fundamentals.

Private transaction data is multi-sourced, aggregated from harvesting public information, 3rd party APIs, and data engineering. All data is verified and provided with an extensive manual process. If data permits, we apply our own logic to get to the EV. For example, for a large M&A deal with available information on the target's net debt, we might adjust a valuation to fully reflect an accurate EV. In all other cases, we take the reported valuation as the numerator. Financials: we source LTM revenue and LTM EBITDA data from company filings, press releases, or other verified sources. If LTM data is unavailable, we take the 'next best-fit' period (run-rate or calendar year), provided it makes sense in a given case. For example, if a deal closed in November 2025, we might take full-year 2025 revenue as a revenue benchmark.

Any raw figures are harmonised to USD for comparison purposes.
