Barcelona’s attributes

Barcelona’s combination of attributes makes it unique and identifies its capabilities and potential.

Barcelona is known as being an attractive and diverse city not just for visiting and living in but also for working, learning, investing or launching a business. An innovative, dynamic, creative and talented city that is also inclusive and supportive. It is a perfect combination of a global and local city that is well known for its quality of life, and the .barcelona domain aims to speak on its behalf.

The city consists of 73 neighbourhoods and has a population of over one and a half million. The neighbourhoods are its territory, and its people are the driver of a city that enjoys challenges and is connected with digital progress, entrepreneurship and social, collaborative and smart platforms and initiatives to meet those challenges.

The city’s brand is recognised all over the world and, despite not being a capital city, it is up there with the ten most international cities, such as London, Berlin, Paris, New York, Rome or Amsterdam. We compete with these world capitals, and we do so by emphasising a clear idea based on the way we are and the way we do things, a way of working and living.

Against this background, the .barcelona domain is particularly appealing not just for innovative projects, local businesses, brands and initiatives based in the city but also for projects seeking to break into the Barcelona market.
