A business park designed to accelerate your innovation

EsadeCreapolis park consists of a business zone and an academic zone where ESADE will expand its Barcelona installations. All this makes up an ecosystem linked to the main networks of knowledge creates the optimal environment for innovation and boost your business performance:

[Business Zone] It consists of the Creapolis building and a Residence-Club in which global innovation experts, participants in ESADE’s Executive Education training programmes and participants from other disciplines can be housed and participate in activities and services that EsadeCreapolis will provide.

[Academia Zone] ESADE will relocate more than 1,200 participants, teachers and all their research centres. The synergies between the resident companies and the school of business are managed so that the resident companies in Creapolis can take advantage of all the potential that ESADE provides.

Installations for your business: Immersion

After years of study, findings indicate that in order to innovate laterally with participants different from you, one needs to “live” with them. It is not enough to collaborate occasionally; one must share time in formal and informal environments. That is why the Creapolis ecosystem promotes the premise of coexistence as the primary collaborative exercise. We invite companies to fully relocate or to relocate a department that can increase their productivity by capturing new ideas, concepts or knowledge in order to drive new products or break through services of high potential.

Some clients have specific departments that they want to fully relocate at EsadeCreapolis. Other clients may see it as key to locate a “feeler” from their clearly developed Innovation Department at EsadeCreapolis. Others may want to establish a base at EsadeCreapolis, in which part of their permanent team from diverse business units could rotate to take an intellectual “holiday” in order to enrich themselves and afterwards feed their business ideas, knowledge and new alliances back to the company. Without a doubt the productivity of this multi-sector innovation is exponential and clearly superior to that which one could develop internally and alone.

Office accommodations of the highest international level. Latest generation offices for small companies and consolidated companies, adapted to every need: ‘open offices’ available for hours, fully equipped offices ‘key in hand’ to start work immediately (Business Center), or rental offices from 100 m2. All housed in a building at the forefront of design represented by cutting edge innovation where you’ll be the protagonist.

Work in clean air and natural light combined with the latest technology in telecommunications, connectivity, videoconferencing, and areas for interaction and leisure. Implementing the latest trends and at the forefront of a new way of working: Are you prepared to define the future?
