Innovators Under 35 Europe - Spain Gathering 2017
This event
After celebrating its first regional edition in Europe, Innovators Under 35 is back in Spain to showcase the work of the most remarkable entrepreneurs and researchers all over the country.
Since its creation in 2011, the Spanish community has been growing exponentially always pursuing the same objective: to award innovation, ingenuity, and advances toward addressing the world’s most pressing challenges.
The Top 10 Spanish Talents of 2017 are shaping their fields with revolutionary projects and ideas that will transform our daily lives through technology. The Awards Ceremony to recognise their work will take place on November 30th at the Barcelona Tech City. Winners from the previous years and experts from the tech ecosystem in Europe will be in attendance to share ideas, connect and discuss about the current and future challenges in the fields of energy, health and finances.
The name of the Innovator of the Year will be unveiled and along with the three Spanish Talents that made the European list will receive a special recognition.
Join us November 30th in Barcelona for the Innovators Under 35 Europe: Spain Gathering
