The 6th edition of 3Day Startup Barcelona 2019 was held at La Salle Campus Barcelona-URL over the weekend, in which 50 students from different universities came together to take on the challenge of creating a company based on sports or travel tech in just 3 days.
The aim of the event was to encourage entrepreneurship among the university community. 3DS BCN 2019 has been organised by 3DS Spain and La Salle Campus Barcelona, in order to open up new future perspectives for students. During the event, entrepreneurs were able to enjoy the personal advice of more than 20 mentors, all specialists in different areas.
