Their point of view

«The park has been a strategic space that has enabled us to share knowledge and create innovative synergies with other companies at a key moment in our business development. Here you can find all of Barcelona Activa’s services to accompany an entrepreneur in the development of their business.

«Our stay at the Park gave us a privileged work space that was not just a pleasant place to work in, but it also allowed us to make contacts with other companies that complemented us. In this environment, we didn’t just do business, we also made great friends.»

«I started my project with Barcelona Activa in 1991 and I still work closely with their team. At the beginning, they gave me a lot of help in areas like the facilities, tutoring services, and especi-ally entrepreneurship support. They were an ideal partner be-cause we were able to create an environment of cooperation and to participate in a lot of interesting activities.»

« Thanks to the park’s facilities and services, Dexma was able to focus 200% on business growth.»

«There are times when the place and the contents come together and this is the case of Vortex in the park. We couldn’t have found this combination of calm, facilities, training opportunities, and entrepreneurial environment anywhere else in Barcelona.»
