According to the Tech Scaleup Spain report, prepared by MTB in collaboration with Acciona and Crunchbase, Spain is a unique case in Europe due to the coexistence of two large start-up ecosystems -Madrid and Barcelona. The report highlights that Barcelona stands as the main focus of growth and investment, with a total of 306 scale-ups and a total of 6,700 million dollars raised since its creation.
“In recent years, Barcelona has become an international hub capable of attracting the digital and innovation headquarters of companies from all over the world. The reasons? It’s a vibrant and growing start-up scene, there’s an abundance of international talent and an interconnected network mentality. That is why we decided a few years ago to open an office in Barcelona, which today houses an international team of more than 10 people. For Mind the Bridge, joining Tech Barcelona is the natural step to further integrate into the local ecosystem and help make it even more international. For this reason, at the top of our task list is a joint analysis of international companies that have a digital centre in Barcelona”. – Alberto Onetti (Chairman, MTB)
