50There is no place like Barcelona. Spain’s cultural capital is known for its beautiful climate and stunning architecture, but the city itself has developed from a top holiday destination into one of the most buzzing entrepreneurial hubs in the world. Harbour.Space is located in the bustling 22@ innovation district - the center of the tech and startup scene, but still five minutes from the sea. Work hard, play hard.

Accreditation
We partnered with a prestigious university the University of the Thai Chamber of Commerce (UTCC) to offer double degrees, which awards an officially accredited diploma, alongside our Harbour.Space University diploma.
Students can obtain a double diploma by completing the required amount of credits and other formal requirements for their specific degree, including studying onsite at the Harbour.Space@UTCC campus in Bangkok, Thailand. The only real difference is studying for a certain time in Bangkok in addition to Barcelona, everything else is the same.
