Day 2

Started the day by getting coffee and breakfast with Sydney and Dr. G. It was the best americano coffee and I loved my croissant and jamon this morning. We headed to the metro where our fearless leader, Sydney, got us to the L9 train. We got off at park logisticas exit to start our first visit! We had the pleasure of visiting Est Eko today which is a logistics startup. Raphael spoke about how new problems arise each quarter, politically, economically etc. Est Eko works to find solutions to reinvent logistics because we are facing problems we’ve never seen before; for example covid. 25-30% of their revenue comes from transportation. The company has only 11 employees. They have an online calendar that shows past and future operations. They utilize artificial intelligence to provide solutions within minutes rather than a day and a half.  We got to tour the incubator with the 3D printing start up. It was so neat to see how advanced 3D printing has become since it’s origin in 1997.

We continued on to lunch at can cuellertas, I had the mixed salad and baby squid. Sydney’s Catalan chicken was incredible! I love trying new foods and experiencing the local culture of Spain. The sagrada familia was unreal! The stained glass was absolutely stunning and the construction is so detailed. Looking forward to exploring more the rest of the evening!
