Back in the day, Poblenou was known as the “Catalonian Manchester” for being the centre of Catalan and Iberian industry. After the 1992 Olympics, the city decided to implement the 22@ district plan. The project basically meant to renew the area, which had been left pretty abandoned, in to a central business district. Nowadays, that old cluster of factories and working class residences has evolved in to the city’s tech and innovation district. Artists, creatives and young professionals from around the world have converted the former factories and warehouses into unique lofts, galleries, shops and co-working spaces.
Our neighbours down at the Valkiria hub space are the ones to talk to if you’re in need of a space for events, presentations, or meetings. In typical Poblenou fashion, this practical space is a 1500m2 revamped warehouse full of colours and textures combined with wood and painted steel, creating a tasteful environment from which you can work on getting just about any project thriving. But the best thing is that you will be able to do so with a full and happy belly, as their Bistro offers high quality, healthy food.
