The “Money” section of Sunday’s issue of “La Vanguardia” devotes an article to a course for entrepreneurs, 3 Day-Start up (3DS), an initiative started at the University of Texas in the US and that is now given in 40 countries. Last weekend  this course was held in Barcelona, being the third time in the town.

Among its participants was the Mexican Juan Pablo Aguilar, who is in his last year of PhD studies at IRB Barcelona, in Dr Albericio's Lab, and says that "I am interested in turning my thesis into something practical.”
