Barcelona Startup Ecosystem

Spain’s most prominent startup hub is becoming a center of innovation and entrepreneurship in Europe.

Barcelona may have 1% fewer startups than Madrid, but it receives the majority of Spanish startup investments. According to Startups Hub Catalonia, between January and May 2022, Catalan startups received $969 million in VC funding, a 246% increase from the previous year.

A large international community and regular networking events such as the EU-Startups summit, Smart City Expo World Congress, and Mobile World Congress attract innovators from around the world to Barcelona.

The talent pool in Barcelona continues to grow, and the city boasts Europe’s second-highest number of software developers after London.

Every night the city buzzes with tech meetups and events at many of the 52 coworking spaces. A growing startup community makes the city an exciting place for founders and aspiring founders. Barcelona’s startup ecosystem is still small compared to London or Berlin, but this makes it easier to become part of the community and connect with the right people.

Fintech, logistics, and E-commerce are Barcelona’s fastest-growing startup sectors. The city is currently home to 6 unicorns- eDreams, Glovo, Wallbox, TravelPerk, Odigeo, and Letgo with plans to more than double the number of unicorns by 2030.

Barcelona Activa is the City council’s program to help founders with all the bureaucratic processes of setting up a company in Spain.

GrowthMentor was built upon the idea that every situation is unique, so generic courses and blog posts just don’t cut it sometimes.

To actually solve your issue you need to connect with someone who’s “been there done that” and have a back-and-forth conversation about the particular roadblock you are facing at this very moment.

Here are some tips.

Come into this with realistic expectations. They’re mentors, not magicians.
Ask your mentor if they’d be ok with you recording your screen with Loom
Give contextual information to help paint the picture of your current situation.
Growth mentors will be asking you lots of questions, answer them as openly as possible.
Don’t be afraid to push the boundaries of question-asking.
Be inquisitive. Stories are gold.
Don’t feel pressure, just relax.
Try to form mental patterns, especially if you speak with multiple mentors.
Embrace alternative views. Ask the mentors to challenge your assumptions.
Be friendly. If you’re likable, the mentors will be your biggest supporters (even after the call is over).

Use dynamic filters to find the perfect mentor for you with the right expertise, language, time zone, and availability you need.
