Over 500 delegates and 30 keynote speakers, from all over Spain and from abroad, participated in major debates and talks, keynote addresses, round table discussions, and practical workshops, while enjoying this unsurpassable venue’s bright, open-plan facilities, featuring brilliant, simple forms radiating warmth and quality.

Ramirez, Eduard Punset, and approximately 30 national and international keynote speakers.
During the congress, the delegates were given the chance of discovering a modern, hospitable city, with three World Heritage Sites: Burgos Cathedral, the St James Way, and the Atapuerca archaeological site. Furthermore, thanks to its famous cuisine, Burgos was "Spanish Gastronomic Capital" last year.
