A business centre for the 21st century

Officially opened in Barcelona Port in 1999, the World Trade Centre was destined to become the most important business hub in the city. The construction is distributed between four buildings and brings to mind the unmistakable shape of a huge ship. Its facilities include offices for rent, rooms for conventions and commerce and all manner of services, ranging from financial organisations to restaurants, a pharmacy and an up-market hotel. Entrepreneurs find the WTCB an ideal place for launching their projects, where clients are welcomed in a pleasant and efficient environment.

Data to be optimistic about

The WTCB’s good health can be seen from its figures: in 2014 alone it held more than three hundred corporate events attended by a total of 38,000 people. Key events included international conferences, scientific meetings, presentations of new products and businesses and large company dinners. One example of the successful companies with headquarters there is the  travel agency eDreams, which having begun its adventure in the WTCB in 2001 with just eight workers, is now a leading company in Europe.
