On 20 July, over 300 entrepreneurs, investors and professionals from the health sector participated in the summer networking barbecue organised by CataloniaBio, the association of health and life sciences companies, at the Specipig facilities. The friendly and informal environment at this unique event in Catalonia promotes cooperation among companies as well as research centres and hospitals carrying out biomedical research of excellence.

During the event, the President of CataloniaBio, Ignasi Biosca, said that Catalonia, in particular the metropolitan area of Barcelona, which is home to a significant biomedical cluster, is currently experiencing a period of growth, which should be leveraged.
