Part of Catalonia's innovation ecosystem

Barcelona is Spain's largest tech hub and one of Europe's most active startup cities. It's also where AI Readi is based. The Catalan Government's business competitiveness agency, ACCIÓ, runs several public platforms that connect startups to the wider economy: directories for company discovery, challenge boards where corporates and public bodies publish innovation briefs, and programmes that link startups to corporates and research infrastructure.

Being on these platforms matters for a B2B product like ours. They sit between Catalan corporates, public bodies, research institutions, and startups, and they're where a lot of real procurement and partnership conversations start.

Being on these platforms is useful, not ceremonial. Startups Hub Catalonia puts us in the same directory that Catalan corporates and public bodies search when they're scoping AI work. And OpenChallenges is where live procurement-adjacent briefs first show up. Both keep us close to customers we'd otherwise have to find cold.

For customers evaluating AI Readi, these listings are a small but concrete signal. We're a registered Catalan company with a public presence in government-run startup infrastructure — the kind of thing a procurement team can verify in two clicks without taking our word for it.
