THE EVENT

The Democracy4All international conference has been held annually since 2019. It brings together talent, experts and policymakers to share and discuss the latest advances in blockchain technology and regulation. Its orientation makes it a unique event in the world because it focuses on the use of the blockchain as an instrument of democratic improvement in terms of social, corporate and individual governance.

It offers Catalonia the opportunity to host the most important international conclave for political actors and institutions everywhere, and contributes to speeding up the dialogue between government bodies and new technologies. The imprint of the conference also reaches the ecosystem as a whole. A space has been set up for local and international partners to hold their own events around the conference, under the umbrella of Barcelona Blockchain Week.

LOCATION

The conference is taking place in Casa Llotja de Mar. Located on the seafront in the historical center of Barcelona, it is one of the most significant and splendid monuments representing the economy and culture of the city. It was built in the second-half of the 14th century, the most brilliant period of Catalan Gothic. The present neoclassical building was constructed in the 18th century on top of the old medieval building.

The antagonism of styles makes Casa Llotja a historical and artistic monument of immense architectural interest, to which is added the incalculable artistic value of its halls and rooms, decorated and enriched mainly with 18th- and 19th-century sculptures and paintings by students and professors of the Academy of Fine Arts. Its wide variety of rooms makes it the perfect place for hosting all manner of different business events with excellence and singularity as the main references.
