Support we’ve received from Barcelona Activa has been key for the launch of our project. Having such an important and committed Partner allowed us both to immediately find the professional profiles we needed, thus being quick in talent search, and to define the right location for the launch of our business.

We are a Chinese MNC operating in Barcelona for more than 20 years. Three years ago we decided to expand our investment in Barcelona with the set up of an industrial certification and inspection laboratory. Barcelona Activa's support was crucial for the launch of the new project, especially regarding the search of location and the contact with key stakeholders.
