It concentrates 22.3% of the Spanish industry, and its GDP is similar, for instance, to Finland’s.</p> <p>Historically a trading nation, its strategic location in the Mediterranean and its transport infrastructures, as well as its entrepreneurial and business-friendly economy, have made it a top location in the south of Europe. Add to that a capital city, Barcelona is an unbeatable meeting point for international business.</p> <h3>Barcelona, a city that beats all capital cities</h3> <p>Known for its outstanding quality of life and forward-thinking services, Barcelona proudly holds the title of 8th best city in the world, according to Resonance World's Best Cities 2024 report. But beyond the rankings, Barcelona embodies a spirit of constant innovation.</p> <p>In Barcelona, innovation is not just a concept; it's a way of life. Here, dynamic companies thrive, attracting both multinationals and start-ups to its vibrant, tech-forward environment.</p> <p>The city's appeal is global. Ranked the 7th most attractive global city in KPMG's 2022 report, Barcelona has become a hub for talent in Southern Europe, drawing individuals and companies from all over the world to its vibrant scene. According to the 2023 FDI Strategy, Catalonia is the Best large European Region for the Future, leading the way in envisioning tomorrow.</p> <p>For those with dreams of making a global impact, Barcelona offers the perfect springboard. According to BCG's 2021 report, it ranks as the 9th best city in the world to work in - a testament to its thriving economy and limitless opportunities.</p> <h3>A top location for international companies</h3> <p>International companies are increasingly deciding on Catalonia and Barcelona for their investments in Europe. Modern and easy connections by plane, roads, and maritime transportation ensure a broad market reach within 24 hours.</p> <p>Moreover, a tech-savvy population and highly skilled professionals make it a preferred place for multinationals from diverse sectors, such as Pepsico, Microsoft, Danone, Nestlé, Amazon, AAM, HP, Novartis, and Merck, to name just a few.</p> <h3 id="table-facts">8 Fast Facts about Catalonia</h3> <table aria-describedby="Barcelona-Catalonia Fast facts" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" title="Barcelona-Catalonia Fast facts"> <caption>8 Fast Facts about Catalonia</caption> <thead> <tr> <th>Fast facts</th> <th>Description</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <th scope="row">Population:</th> <td>7.7 million</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Area:</th> <td>32,108 sq km</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Location:</th> <td>North-east of Spain, bordering France and the Mediterranean Sea</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Monetary unit:</th> <td>Euro</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">GDP 2022:</th> <td>270,710 million Euros</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">GDP per capita (2022):</th> <td>31,531 Euros</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Exports (2022):</th> <td>94,927 million Euros</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">FDI (2018-2022):</th> <td>20,300 million Euros (29% more than in the previous five years)</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </section> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class=""> <div class=" mb-lg-0 ml-lg-0 mr-lg-0 mt-lg-0 pb-lg-0 pl-lg-0 pr-lg-0 pt-lg-0" style="box-sizing: border-box;border-style: solid; border-width: 0px;opacity: 1.0;"> <div id="fragment-0-qvnd" > <div class="portlet-boundary portlet-boundary_com_liferay_journal_content_web_portlet_JournalContentPortlet_ portlet-static portlet-static-end portlet-borderless portlet-journal-content " id="p_p_id_com_liferay_journal_content_web_portlet_JournalContentPortlet_INSTANCE_qvnd_"> <span id="p_com_liferay_journal_content_web_portlet_JournalContentPortlet_INSTANCE_qvnd"></span> <section class="portlet" id="portlet_com_liferay_journal_content_web_portlet_JournalContentPortlet_INSTANCE_qvnd"> <div class="portlet-content"> <div class="autofit-float autofit-row portlet-header"> <div class="autofit-col autofit-col-end"> <div class="autofit-section"> <div class="visible-interaction"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class=" portlet-content-container"> <div class="portlet-body"> <div class="" data-fragments-editor-item-id="20132-184128" data-fragments-editor-item-type="fragments-editor-mapped-item"> <div class="journal-content-article " data-analytics-asset-id="460320" data-analytics-asset-title="In Barcelona we have HP’s most important laboratory outside the US" data-analytics-asset-type="web-content"> <section class="part_quote container"> <div class="quote_ca"> <div class="text"> <p class="title">“In Barcelona we have HP’s most important laboratory outside the US.
