We launched the 2nd edition of Barcelona 2040

This Thursday, December 3, we started the second edition of Barcelona 2040, the leadership and city-driven program that we presented a few months ago and that wants to train and connect young talent so that they discover Barcelona from all its areas and develop proposals for the future.

This edition, Barcelona 2041, has 22 young people who will know the different sectors of Barcelona through 10 sessions and visits to companies and institutions and with conversations with main opinion-leaders in the business, science, gastronomy, culture, knowledge, sports, industry, journalism, and political spheres.
