Catalonia, a land of talent, a job opportunity for Catalan and foreign, but not for the Spanish ..

We have this month seen investments of Microsoft, Facebook, Enerkem, Suez, digital Lidl, Moodle, Chartboost, Amazon, King, Satellogic, WeWork, IGG, PepsiCo, Hawkers and Scopely in Catalonia, not casual, has several reasons.

We begin with the most frivolous: Barcelona is a city where you live and eat well, its temperature is ideal and no beach ...

Without forgetting that more and more intercontinental connections from El Prat.

But the bottom line is talent. And talent is at home. And when talent is missing, it is easier to convince someone to come to Barcelona Helsinki than elsewhere in the world ...

Companies know that.

Multinationals are both given the BOE, why not settle in Madrid. Its market is global, where they plan to move to find better environment in general.

Let's continue with other factors.

One must not forget is the 22 @. I never get tired to recognize my laugh when 20 years ago it occurred to Mayor Clos. It seemed a joke then ...

For that node, cluster, is crucial too.

It is the importance of the ecosystem. Companies seeking developers artificial intelligence, working with data, engineers, etc. Barcelona is a knowledge that is already highly developed by universities and research centers. Three of the five largest universities in the peninsula are in Catalunya. In addition there are many companies and startups that use data science and that attracts others. 

An ecosystem that already exists.

Not forgetting that Catalonia has one of the largest supercomputing centers in Europe; Photonics is the ICFO; medical centers first level; artificial intelligence Catalunya is one of the leading places in the field.

They are very important "little things" small country but. Like the fact that there are two schools of business of the most important in the world, an issue that also surprises the outside.

Catalunya is an anomaly but unfortunately does not have the legal instruments to promote it as other small countries, since the Constitutional tumbaría any ad hoc law.

And above all this potential question is: Can Employ CATALUNYA SPANISH.

Answer: NO.

The only communities that could send talent to Catalonia are the Basque Country and Madrid. But in the first live well in the world of tax havens and the second they prefer to work for companies in the Ibex 35 or for three powerful governments enjoyed by locals.

That is, Catalunya is growing faster than Spain with local and foreign workers. People who speak languages ​​and considers that rents for city like Barcelona are low compared with anywhere in the world. But, for someone of the plateau it is very difficult to come to work in Catalonia, that time is over when emigration had no training. 

We must be realistic, vocational training and universities in Spain play in a lower league Catalunya.

Then there is the language handicap and how expensive it is to live in Catalonia for Spanish. Nobody will leave Sevilla to win 1,500 euros per month, only those who already live in the metropolitan area of ​​Barcelona can.

That is, do not come because they are not prepared and because Barcelona is expensive.

Therefore, for the first time in the history grows Catalunya Catalan and foreign talent, really it seems made knowingly Catalan within that frame of mind. Catalonia is creating jobs for Catalan and foreign, not for Spain.

It is building a more advanced and modern society (just need to see what young people vote in Spain ...).

Clearly, in a few years we will see some differences in GDP increasingly differentiated between Spain and Catalonia.

Who would say that excellence is the best way to create country?

Catalunya reminds the Barça de Guardiola.
