Experience with the Ambassador Programme. Eduard Vieta – Hospital Clínic of Barcelona
I want to thank the Catalunya Convention Bureau for its help in organising the supper for the Congress of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ECNP) last October in Barcelona. The congress, which had the support of the Barcelona Convention Bureau, brought together more than 5,000 scientists from around the world and was a success in both the organizational aspect and the contents. As treasurer of the College and as Ambassador I feel proud of having placed Catalonia and its capital in the centre of investigation about illnesses of the brain, and of having given a magnificent image of our culture and our capacity to organise major international events. The congress is held in different European cities, but the success it had in 2018 means that we can confirm that in 2023 (7th-10th October), Barcelona will once again host the congress and be the city hosting the most important advances in research of the brain and its neurological and psychiatric illnesses. A great success for our city and country.
