The Swiss multinational Arxada has established itself in Barcelona with the aim of leveraging its talent in the digital field. The company, specialized in special chemical products, will launch a center of excellence that will result in the creation of a hundred jobs. It will be located in Torre Llevant, on Paseo de la Zona Franca, in the same building where Cellnex's corporate headquarters are located and which also houses a good part of Wallbox's offices.

"Barcelona gives us access to a very interesting emerging talent hub", explains Arxada's CEO, Marc Doyle, to justify the opening of these offices in Barcelona, which he expects to inaugurate next June. According to Doyle, the multinational analyzed several possible locations for its center of excellence and finally chose the Catalan capital because"the city is rapidly becoming a preferred destination for major tech companies, so it is attracting a lot of brilliant people from all over the world and that is what tipped the scales in favor of Barcelona." Still in the initial phase of this center of excellence, the Basel-based company has already hired about twenty qualified professionals. The operation has had the support of ACCIÓ, the agency for business competitiveness of the Generalitat. Arxada is a global science-based specialty chemicals company that develops innovative chemistry and solutions. The company focuses on various business areas, mainly: human health and nutrition; home and personal care; paints and coatings; and wood protection, with a broad portfolio of diverse products and solutions. It has more than 3,600 employees worldwide and is present in 35 countries, with 25 production centers and 13 R&D centers.
