Apollo 11 was a milestone for solving complex problems. Hence the name moonshots: projects that propose radical ideas for tackling major problems by using futuristic technology. Their capacity for innovation has just started.

You can't reach the top without effort, hard work, and passion. And these are precisely the values that have been championed by the team at El Celler de Can Roca for the last 30 years. Ever since Joan and Josep Roca opened their own restaurant alongside their parents' eatery in August 1986, they have not ceased in their pursuit of excellence and their total commitment to what they do: delivering a unique experience to everyone who takes a seat at one of their tables.

The third edition of the BBVA Foundation Grants for Researchers and Cultural Creators has ended with grants awarded to 60 individuals for a total of 2,200,000 euros. The funds are destined to supporting projects in a variety of fields of knowledge; from cancer research to protecting the environment.

The Valley of the Sun got even brighter last week as the world-renowned Roca brothers trekked into Phoenix as part of the 2016 BBVA-El Celler de Can Roca Tour.

The end of the first leg of El Celler de Can Roca’s world tour was marked by the standing ovation from the almost 400 BBVA clients that had been invited to enjoy a special menu that paid homage to the British capital’s cosmopolitan spirit.

It was not an easy challenge but the Roca brothers always accomplish what they set out to do. Once again, El Celler de Can Roca proved that they can work their cooking magic far away from home. The whole team, led by Joan, Josep and Jordi Roca, gave its best to make this a memorable and successful tour-kickoff event. London fell under the spell of one of the best restaurants in the world, capable of taking the top spot, not once, but twice in three years.
