It was a pleasure to join Campus Madrid, a Google Space, for Creativity Week. A whole week where art, design, technology, and entrepreneurship will mix.
The week (starting Monday) included interventions, performances, and talks. In these Campus Creativity Week performances, we were able to watch professional artists, accustomed to using paint or sculpture, expressing themselves with light. Showcasing themes inspired by our Campus creatives: startups and entrepreneurs. In addition, the Campus will be hosted different artists to elevate both the inside and outside of the building to a new visual level.
On Friday, we witnessed a mix of talks on the intersection of art, entrepreneurship, technology, and innovation, and during the weekend we had the chance to experience Gaudí Inspired Design Thinking Workshop. Some of the insights we gained from this event were: what artists & entrepreneurs have in common – and where they differ; how the creative process can be shared despite different tools of creation; all whilst paired in mixed groups of artists and entrepreneur
