Hi again. CONTEXT:
"Impelidas por las grandes oportunidades de empleo y desarrollo que representa el Plan Director de Conexión, empresas del sector Internet de todo el continente han construido fábricas, contratado centenares de trabajadores y ampliado su capacidad de producción en cuantos modos han podido".
Of course, I get what it means but can't seem to find the right word to translate it. Options such as 'urge' and 'encourage' seem great if it's a person who does it, but here we're dealing with employment opportunities.
TIA.

impelled
"Impelled by a string of mergers and acquisitions, a pack of multi-billion dollar corporations currently dominates, all of them frantically searching to please shareholders, avoid takeover and find the holy grail-the drug that can net a billion dollars in sales a year until its 20-year patent expires."
