Carlos Ballesteros recapped day one of the 2026 Coworking Spain Conference in Barcelona, noting the market is maturing, with projects like Aticco's 20k sqm space showing real scale alongside smaller operators with very different realities.

Key takeaways include management agreements between operators and landlords gaining traction in Spain, a growing connection with Latin America, and AI showing up more across marketing, sales, and onboarding. The event brought together 15 years of community, with Manuel Zea Barral, Marc Navarro, and Laura Martin Nicolas among those who made it happen.
