The Cádiz Free Trade Zone has engaged in international efforts to promote its economic transformation model and foster cooperation between Europe and Ibero-America.

In September 2026, the consortium presented its expertise in economic development, innovation, and the ‘Blue Economy’ to authorities in Peru during the Academic Forum of ZED Paita. This mission sought to strengthen ties with the Paita Special Development Zone as Peruvian officials evaluate the future of their own economic special zones.

Following this outreach, Cádiz was announced as the host for the XXIX Iberoamerican Free Zones Conference, scheduled for late October 2026. The event, themed ‘The ocean that unites us. The conversations that will mark the future’, aims to connect the two regions through discussions on trade, investment, sustainability, and logistics featuring international experts.
