Tech Spirit Barcelona 2026

Tech Barcelona's flagship congress, back for a sixth edition over two days at Casa Llotja de Mar, putting the city's founders, investors, researchers and operators in a room with its international connections.

Six programme tracks: AI-native business, on how companies are built and run with AI agents; investment, on where capital is going and how companies reach it; robotics and hardware, including chips and new computing architectures; gaming, covering world models for physical AI; health, from drug design to brain-machine interfaces; and creativity. Partner tracks include the Catalan Pitch Competition and Startups to Funding with ACCIO, and an AI Factory track with Barcelona Supercomputing Center. Free admission, registration required; the full speaker line-up is still to be announced.

Why go: it is the week the whole Barcelona ecosystem turns up in one building. Best for founders raising, investors scouting and anyone who needs the city's network in two days.
