Small company with new board in Spanish city (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cordoba

'spanish city' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'small company with new board' is the wordplay.
'small company' becomes 'co' (abbreviation; 'small' asks for an abbreviation).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'new' indicates anagramming the letters.
'board' with letters rearranged gives 'rdoba'.
'co'+'rdoba'='CORDOBA'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for cordoba that I've seen before include "money for the Contras" , "ready for Nicaragua?" , "Spanish destination" , "City in southern Spain and Spanish explorer" , "Moorish city" .)
