A new identity to keep innovating 

Barcelona is a city committed to innovation, technology, and the progress of services for citizens and municipal staff. In this context, the Municipal Institute of Informatics is transforming and becoming the Municipal Institute of Barcelona Innovation and Technology (BIT). 

This name change reflects our desire to continue leading the application of information and communication technologies to improve citizens’ quality of life and the efficiency of Public Administration. In a context of digital transformation of society, the Institute ensures the digital transformation of Barcelona City Council and the city itself. 

At the Institute, more than 250 people work every day with enthusiasm, effort, and great professionalism towards a common goal: to provide the City Council and citizens with technological solutions that improve quality of life and well-being for everyone, as well as the daily work of City Council staff, making Barcelona a smarter, more human, and more connected city. 

We welcome you to this new stage. The name changes, but the commitment remains. 

Welcome to the Municipal Institute of Barcelona Innovation and Technology (BIT).
