WHY BARCELONA?
Barcelona is the gateway to Europe, the center of an emerging Euroregion, the capital of the Mediterranean area, a bridge to the Maghreb, and a hub linking to Latin America.
It has an airport just 15 minutes from the city center, a growing port—the largest in the Mediterranean—and excellent land connections via rail and an international highway network.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has recognized Barcelona as a global reference in medicine thanks to the high quality of its healthcare system and the expertise of its professionals.
