The fabric of technology companies in Catalonia continues to expand. According to a report prepared by Acció, the agency for business growth of the Department of Business and Labor of the Generalitat, the Principality had 402 deep technology startups at the close of 2025. This is the first time that more than 400 businesses of this profile have been registered in the country. The figure represents a growth of 7.5% compared to the previous year.

Niu, which this year takes place on June 7th, is a festival for young emerging artists from the Catalan Countries. The first edition, held just a year ago, was born from the final year's thesis by Júlia Aleu, who studied audiovisual communication at ERAM. The event, which thanks to its success in the first year secured a second edition, brings together all types of artistic disciplines with a total of 42 original proposals.
