The audiovisual sector in Catalonia is experiencing significant growth and has a substantial economic impact. The sector's total turnover reached €8.636 billion, a 14% increase over the past year. This industry comprises 4,161 companies, predominantly small- or medium-sized enterprises. However, the financial power is concentrated, as just 1% of the companies (the large enterprises) generate 48.4% of the industry's total revenue. Economically, the audiovisual sector is a major player, accounting for 3% of Catalonia's total GDP and providing employment for 41,866 professionals.
Catalonia is the 4th region in the EU in terms of the number of projects by creative industries. It also accounts for 8.6% of jobs created in the EU and 4.5% of capital invested. In the 2020-2024 period, Catalonia has become the 5th-ranked EU region in terms of invested capital in the audiovisual industry.
