TBS Education reinforces its presence in the Catalan capital with a new educational center in 22@, on Veneçuela street, with capacity to host up to 1,100 students. After an investment of 30 million euros, the center opened its doors in September, with almost 700 students enrolled and the goal of reaching maximum capacity in the coming academic years. The business school, founded in Toulouse, is also present in Paris and Casablanca, totaling more than 5,000 students and 110 professors globally.
According to Olivier Benielli, director of the TBS Education-Barcelona campus, in this new stage, more teaching staff will be hired. They plan to add 15 professors to the current team, made up of 9 professors who are complemented by about 30 who come from the main headquarters in Toulouse and 60 associate professors.
The new campus has almost 9,000 square meters, which means "more than doubling" the surface area that TBS Education had until now in the city, Benielli points out. Specifically, the business school had 3,500 square meters distributed in two locations, one on Trafalgar street and another on Bailén street.
In addition to classrooms and study areas, the TBS headquarters in 22@ has a terrace, an amphitheater, an incubator, a library, a cafeteria-restaurant, and parking for bicycles and motorcycles. The business school commissioned the construction project to Perial Asset Management, owner of the building and with whom they have signed a rental contract for a period of 25 years.
Next to the TBS campus, on Pallars street, Hines has built a residence with spaces for 700 students, managed by Aparto. The student accommodation company also has a presence in ten other cities in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Italy.

"We were very clear from the beginning that we wanted to be here," he emphasizes.
