The El Referente Awards have become a national event to identify and discover the best Spanish startups in the early stages.

Founded in 2009, El Referente is the leading magazine for information on startups and innovation in Spain, created and managed by a young and dynamic team of journalists based in Madrid.

The El Referente Awards have become a national event to identify and discover the Spanish startups in the seed stage holding the biggest promise thanks not only to the thorough scrutiny of these startups but also to the exhaustive analysis of the jury year to asses and score the projects. Sponsored by Deloitte, Sabadell Bank and the law firm Ecija, every year, its associated report is downloaded by more than 10,000 people.

In its 2022 edition, Silbat appears for the first time, ranked 77 (74 to 78, all with the same score) and number one in the Energy category.
