The Valencian industrial fabric is one of the major drivers of Spanisheconomic growth. Its activities include retail distribution, chemical pro -duction, the agro-food sector, automotive industry, transport, building, etc.
Its commitment to the future is based on the maximum support Valenciagives to emergent strategic sectors such as biotechnology and health care,ITC, videogames, renewable energies, tourism and the idiosyncratic clustersthat materialize in the creative industry, the highest expression of which is musicand the artistic creation of the Fallas. This commitment to the future is conden -sed into the extensive academic programme offered by 8 universities, twoof which are among the best 400 in the world.
The city of Valencia, beyond the strictly economic indicators, which play aprominent role for the corporate investment, stands out for its social opennessand a stable political environment, which is embodied in the friendly relation -ships between different local, sub-regional, regional and national levels ofgovernment, facilitating the development of all kinds of economic activities inits territory.
