The partnership between IED and the Port of Barcelona will be present in the OFF programming of Barcelona Design Week (BDW) in the form of a seminar entitled “A Sea of Opportunities: Exploring the Blue Economy Towards a Sustainable Future”.
The discussion, which will unite Design and the Blue Economy, will take place at the IED Barcelona Point One building on 24 October at 7 pm, providing an interesting focus on the importance of the blue economy of oceans for sustainability through innovation and design. It will also emphasise the connection between Barcelona and the sea in the current context of preparations for the upcoming America’s Cup, scheduled to be held in the city in 2024.
