ADADE-Valencia

What ADADE-Valencia does

Grupo Asesor Internacional ADADE S.A. is a Spanish professional advisory and audit network founded in 1993, structured as an association of independent member offices (despachos) operating under a shared brand. The network delivers comprehensive business advisory services across four core pillars — tax (Asesoría Fiscal), labor (Asesoría Laboral), accounting (Asesoría Contable), and legal (Asesoría Jurídica) — supplemented by auditing, consulting, data protection, occupational risk prevention, certificate issuance, whistleblowing channels (Canal Ético), talent selection, and value-added compliance services including due diligence and anti-money laundering advisory. Underlying delivery is traditional professional services rather than technology: the firm has no proprietary core technology stack, but operates a member-facing 'Área Privada' digital platform providing shared workspace tools, forums, databases, circulars, videos, and library resources.

The business model combines two revenue streams: (i) fee-based professional advisory services billed to end-clients via per-engagement quotes, and (ii) an annual membership/subscription model where affiliated advisory firms join the ADADE network to access shared resources, corporate agreements, training, and brand positioning while retaining client-facing independence. Go-to-market is entirely channel-based, with member offices serving as the primary distribution layer across 25 Spanish provinces and seven international markets (Argentina, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Panama, USA via Miami, and Venezuela), the latter enabled through membership in the Allinial Global international network. The firm serves more than 15,000 end-clients, almost exclusively SMBs — companies, freelancers, professionals, and entrepreneurs — with no named enterprise logos disclosed. Pricing is not publicly listed.

ADADE is privately held with entirely Spanish capital and no external equity or funding rounds disclosed. Governance is provided by a Junta Directiva led by President Ramón Mª Calduch Farnós, with vice presidents José Luís García Núñez and Víctor Pérez Castro, Secretary Anna C. Calduch Skopalik, and Treasurer Montse Rodríguez López. The firm is a founding member of AESAE (Asociación Española de Servicios Avanzados a Empresas) and holds seats in CEOE and CEPYME. It ranked #10 nationally among Spanish advisory and audit firms per Expansión and El Economista in 2025.
