The European Commission has awarded the first European Capital of Innovation ("iCapital") prize to Barcelona (Spain) "for introducing the use of new technologies to bring the city closer to citizens". Barcelona was chosen by a panel of independent experts in a close competition with Grenoble (France) and Groningen (The Netherlands). The €500,000 iCapital prize will be used to scale up and expand Barcelona's efforts on innovation. The second edition of the Innovation Convention took place in Brussels on 10 and 11 March 2014. It brought together an eclectic mix of world renowned speakers looking at different aspects of innovation. The Innovation Convention is an essential part of the Innovation Union flagship initiative, the EU's roadmap to turn Europe into a more innovation-friendly and competitive continent.
