“We want economic activity to remain within the city so that citizens can live and work in Barcelona. The new urban industry and technologies make this possible, but to achieve it, spaces like DFactory are essential,” Collboni said about the building that brings together companies related to Industry 4.0. This facility is currently undergoing expansion works. According to the CZFB, they are progressing “at a good pace”.
