Subsequently Marc and Xavier met with Muntsa Vilalta, Director of FEMCAT, the premier Catalan business foundation. FEMCAT’s mission consists of developing the Catalan economy and social environment in business. The meeting procured many unique ideas, mainly the collaboration of FEMCAT and the CAC in helping promote Catalan-American businesses and also Transatlantic trade. Additionally, the CAC delegation discussed the valuable insight FEMCAT could provide to the Diaspora Project.

At the Real Club Nautico de Barcelona, Marc and Xavier met with Joan Marin, Director of the club. With the America's Cup coming to Barcelona, the gentlemen discussed the possibility of a CAC event taking place at the yacht club, allowing participants to enjoy the regatta festivities and America’s Cup speakers with the Catalan community fostered by the CAC.

Marc and Xavier also discussed opportunities for the CAC America's Cup event in Barcelona with Montse Puig Ponsico, the CEO of Barcelona & Partners.

Finally, Marc and Xavier met with Victoria Alsina, City Hall Councilwoman and the former Minister of Foreign Action and Open Government, at the Barcelona City Hall.

I appreciate the openness and how receptive everyone is to collaborate and move our vision and mission forward, as well as continue new and existing relationships to build our bond with all. I am ecstatic for what the future holds for not only us, but the entire community and mission that we support,” said CAC President Marc Corsi.
