Barcelona as a blue economy city
The blue economy is well represented in the city, with over 1,600 companies and 16,000 workers in this sector.
In addition, various events linked to this sector are being held in Barcelona, such as the America’s Cup and the UN Ocean Decade Conference, which will both be held next year.
