Barcelona Innovation Coast
The BIC is an initiative of Barcelona City Council that was born with the aim of promoting innovation and consolidating the city as the innovation capital of southern Europe.
It is a public-private platform that brings together the city's main innovative agents: universities and business schools, research and knowledge transfer centers, business associations, clusters, financing agents and public administrations.
The BIC makes it possible to create networks that facilitate the transfer of knowledge, synergies and the development of innovative projects in the city.
The main objective of the BIC is to strengthen innovation by facilitating the transfer of knowledge from the research world to companies, and it will be focused on the strategic sectors of health, mobility and energy, and as a transversal vector, the technology and digitization.
