Investment plans by Azorean companies exceed €1 billion
The Azores’ economy is showing clear signs of vitality, resilience and confidence. The strong uptake of various incentive schemes by regional companies demonstrates that the Azorean business community is active, investing, innovating and believing in the Region’s future. Figures speak for themselves. Under the Construir 2030 programme, applications were submitted representing €748.3 million in investment. Under the IFIC programme, the volume of investment applied for exceeds €252 million. In addition to this is the digital transition component, amounting to €33 million, bringing the total intended investment by Azorean companies to over €1 billion. These results confirm that the regional economy is growing and that Azorean entrepreneurs have been able to reinvent themselves, adapt and make the most of the tools made available to them. This is also a clear sign that the Regional Government of the Azores has successfully designed and implemented effective incentive schemes. With a strategy and measures tailored to the Region’s specific circumstances, companies are responding, investment is growing, and the Azores are firmly following a path of growth and confidence.

Press release – Regional Accounts
Following the data released today by the National Statistics Institute (INE), the Regional Secretariat for Finance, Planning and Public Administration hereby wishes to emphasise that the information already released by the Government of the Azores in late January regarding the 2025 budget implementation has been confirmed. Additionally, this confirmation includes transactions related to SATA and the health sector, viewed from the perspective of national accounts. Concerning net debt, the Regional Government only used €70 million of the €75 million allocation provided for in the Regional Budget. The increase in gross debt was driven by loans taken out by companies within the SATA group, notably those benefiting from the personal guarantee of the Autonomous Region of the Azores, as provided for in the Regional Budget for 2025. In addition to these two items, the operation to settle overdue payments in the health sector, amounting to €150 million and authorised by the Regional Budget and State Budget, also contributed to the growth in the overall gross debt.
