        European Commission names Barcelona first European Capital of Innovation
                                        The European Commission named last month Barcelona the first European Capital of Innovation. This newly created prize was decided in the final phase, with Barcelona winning out over Grenoble (France) and Groningen (Netherlands).
The decisive factors in Barcelona receiving this recognition are the fact that it is a productive city and that it is improving management through new technology for the benefit of its inhabitants. Other elements that make Barcelona the most innovative city in Europe are its role as Mobile World Capital and that all of the related events are participative in nature.
It must be noted that Barcelona is a pioneer in the development of smart cities, self-sufficient cities, productive neighborhoods and those with zero emissions. Examples of these include the new bus network and the teleservice initiative, which helps improve quality of life for residents.
