Cross-cutting policies. Key challenges

The objectives are translated into cross-cutting policies that will be implemented during the upcoming period and are aligned with the key challenges identified in this plan. 

Specific measures, with a timeframe, budget, an entity from the City Council in charge and a set of key milestones to achieve. The nature of the actions varies: some are designed for the short term and others for the long term, ensuring a cultural change and a steady transition towards a new Barcelona.

Typologies of cross-cutting policies

Subsidies, grants and funding

Measures that result in the direct or indirect provision of fiscal conditions and financial support to stimulate the economy.

Initiatives aimed training, helping and guiding city residents, companies and civil society organisations as they navigate Barcelona's economic system.

Economic development tools

Actions that serve as an impetus to help companies, start-ups and entrepreneurs to grow and establish themselves in Barcelona's economy.

Regulatory and administrative changes

Adjustments to the regulatory and legislative framework to ensure that the government institutions are catalysts and facilitators, not obstacles, for economic activity.

Public private partnership

Mechanisms for cooperation between public entities and private companies in Barcelona to generate value propositions for city residents.

Key challenges

Looking after people

Support for local retail

Knowledge transfer

Talent generation and development
