Bizbarcelona was structured around two
different sections: Bizemprèn, where
the focus was on entrepreneurs; and
Bizpimes, for growing companies. This
differentiated approach helped to increase
the presence of small and medium
entrepreneurs, who now form nearly half
the total visitors to the show, by 26%
compared to 2014. The other half of the
visitor number is formed by entrepre-
neurs seeking solutions, inspiration and
financing to bring their business ideas and
projects to fruition.
The show hosted 198 conferences and
workshops with 303 speakers, 26 net-
working spaces and 89 exhibitors, as well
as areas devoted to consulting, takeovers,
franchises and financing and employment
markets, among many more activities.
