E-Club in Barcelona

General info

Join Entrepreneurship Club Polimi in discovering the Spanish startup world. Students will have the opportunity to visit startups and companies such as Glovo and Typeform.

Barcelona offers a unique opportunity to explore the eclectic architecture of Antoni Gaudí and is also a center of engineering innovation, with advanced projects such as the 22@Barcelona District.

In addition, the presence of high-level academic institutions and a lively cultural atmosphere make Barcelona a stimulating place to gain inspiration and practical knowledge in the field of engineering and architecture.

This trip promotes networking not only among students but also with the foreign entrepreneurial world. We want to give an overview to all participants of the differences between the Italian entrepreneurial world - which we usually attend with our events - and the European one.
