Résumé

The Basque Country is one of few regions in the world that can lay claim to having proactively and consistently built a successful, industry-focused territorial strategy over the course of several decades. This paper builds on previous analysis of earlier periods in the strategy to analyse the period from 2008 to 2020. During this period the region has built sustained resilience, successfully navigating the financial crisis and generating continued improvements in economic and social outcomes. This paper explores the main features and challenges going forward of the Basque Country’s strategy for inclusive competitiveness, and identifies lessons that other regions can learn from the Basque experience.
