Media-TIC designed by Enric Ruiz Geli, The 22@ is an experimental district in Barcelona, Spain, with a mayor energetic load (District Climate), where the new values of the companies are intangible: they are not based on having natural resources of water, soil, gas, they don’t have real-estate values, retransmission rights (Media Pro), they have patents (Indra), they have intelligence, programming, and interaction (like the Reactable of Sergi Jorda from the Pompeu), a district, the way Artur Serra from I2CAT and the people from the 22@ say, an urban Lab.
