i.
The Site
A landscaped Mediterranean property on the edge of Hondón Valley: the main building and the amenity annex, designed as a single integrated environment.
Hondón Valley · Alicante · Spain
A Mediterranean
Silicon Valley.
A home for European technology talent in inland Alicante. A working software studio, residences for engineers, and the starting point of a programme to bring skilled digital jobs to Spain's smaller towns.
The Idea
Europe needs a third option.
For thirty years, ambitious European software engineers have faced a binary choice: move to San Francisco for the network, or stay in Berlin or London and accept the ceiling. Both options leak the best people.
Samavi Innovation Center is that third option. A live-work residence in southeast Spain where founders, engineers, and designers live alongside one another, building software inside a single building, eating dinners under olive trees, and creating the kind of serendipity that has only ever existed in a handful of places on earth.
The Property
Walk through the property.
Five thousand square metres of carefully designed live-work environment, set in olive groves with sierra views. Every square metre designed for focused work and unhurried community.
ii.
24 Engineer Studios
45m² studio apartments, the engineer residences. Floor-to-ceiling glass opening to private balconies with sierra views. Designed for a single person or couple in deep work mode.
iii.
Software Studio
Two full floors of working space for the Samavi software studio. Open plan workstations, three glass-walled meeting rooms, breakout zones. The engine room of every platform built here.
iv.
Common Kitchen
The heart of the building. Long table dinners, communal cooking, the daily coffee ritual. Where products are debated, partnerships are forged, and serendipity happens.
v.
Amenity Annex
Separate single-story building housing the gym, the seminar classroom (open to local schools for technology education), the wellness suite and the podcast studio. The community-facing edge of the property.
Timing
Why this. Why now.
Four shifts converging. Each one alone makes the case. Together they make it inevitable.
01Talent
European software engineers are leaving the old centers.
Remote work has moved from emergency measure to permanent fixture. Technical talent, particularly those with families, those leaving London, those returning from the US, is actively looking for places that offer better quality of life without sacrificing intensity. We are at the leading edge of a structural relocation of European software talent.
02EU Inc.
Europe is finally building the legal infrastructure for scale.
EU Inc., the proposed 28th regime currently going through the EU legislative process, would let companies incorporate once and operate across all 27 member states. Together with the EU AI Act, it points to a Europe where founders can build at continental scale from day one. The startup container Europe has lacked for thirty years is finally taking shape.
27 → 1
Member states, one company framework
03Sovereignty
Europe wants to own its technology.
Technological sovereignty is now a political priority in Europe. The European Commission estimates that over 80% of the digital products, services and infrastructure used in the EU come from non-European providers. Europe needs places where its own platforms are built, and the people to build them.

04Proof
The studio is already building. The center is the multiplier.
Samavi already designs, builds and operates its own platforms: DealWMe, Lyvvo, Nige and DexterityWins. All of it was built without a permanent home or the talent density a center creates. The Innovation Center gives that work a base, and gives the region the jobs that come with it.

Programa Samavi España
Talent shouldn't have to leave home.
The Center is the first step. The bigger goal is a national programme that brings skilled technology jobs to Spain's small and mid-sized towns, so people can build global careers without leaving the places they love.
01
Digital jobs in small towns
Skilled, well-paid technology roles in rural and mid-sized municipalities, remote-first and connected to the Center.
02
Keep and bring back talent
A reason for young graduates to stay, and for those who left to come home.
03
Light local hubs
Small coworking hubs run with local councils, instead of new buildings in every town.
04
Training with local schools
The Center's classroom opens to local schools and young people for technology education.
05
Companies that stay in Spain
Companies that serve the whole world while creating jobs and contributing locally in Spain.
06
Impact we measure
Net jobs created, how long people stay, and the effect on local housing, reported openly every year.
Phase 1 · The Center
Our base in inland Alicante: studio, residences and classroom.
Phase 2 · First local hubs
Pilot hubs in towns of inland Alicante, with local partners.
Phase 3 · Across Spain
Expanding to other provinces wherever the pilots prove real, lasting jobs.
The Team
We don't write decks. We ship.
The Innovation Center is not a pivot. It is the physical expression of what we already do: a permanent home for the studio, a place to train and grow technical talent, and a starting point for skilled digital work in the Spanish interior.
Founder Stephanie Mau Asam has been building technology since 2014 and founded Samavi Consultancy S.L. in Alicante in 2022.
Samavi is a technology development company that designs, builds and operates its own digital platforms: DealWMe, a marketplace where creators and brands close deals securely; Lyvvo, an AI-powered property platform; Nige, a community and learning platform; and DexterityWins, a sports analytics platform.
