Barcelona, a Bright Spot in the European Digital Landscape
Barcelona, a Bright Spot in the European Digital Landscape
In a special report commissioned by Huawei, Science Business examines 10 European tech clusters, which provide case studies on the integration of information and communications technologies (ICT) into economy (Science Business is a consultancy company set up in Brussels that publishes original research and analysis on European innovation policy).
This report is not a ranking but, according to its authors, an effort to highlight some especially bright spots in the European digital landscape. Barcelona is among the 10 cities selected: the authors point out, among other things, the policymakers’ willingness to support research, trials and pilots, and not just by providing funding.
It is worth noting that this report mentions the Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST) as one key player of the city. In this recent alliance of six top Catalan research centres, two of them are located on the campus of the UAB University, the Barcelona Synchrotron Park strategic partner: the High Energy Physics Institute (IFAE) and the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2).
