The Park inaugurates the PCBeach space with the Ambassadors of the PCB

The Park officially opened the PCBeach on Tuesday, November 30, an outdoor recreation area decorated with a mural by artist Christophe Deluz. The conditioning of the PCBeach was possible thanks to the support of Qiagen who collaborated financially in the project.

The opening ceremony was attended by Maria Terrades, director general of the PCB, 26 Park Ambassadors and the presence of the Qiagen management team, led by Nik Baumann.

The PCBeach has been one of the Park’s latest projects to promote the interaction between art and science in its iconic spaces and to give visibility and voice to contemporary artistic talent. The artist Deluz won a competition with more than 18 participants with his work Catxalot, a mural depicting this sea cetacean 4.5 m high by 6.5 m wide, last spring.

With the PCB Ambassadors program, the Park’s management aims to be closer to the installed entities and generate a direct channel of communication with them, as well as to promote internal networking. This group is made up of about 30 professionals with management positions in the main entities of the Park who participate in the activities offered by the program.
