| Wellness and Spa sector will feature again at the Piscina and Wellness Barcelona exhibition |

The second Wellness and Spa Event will welcome around thirty speakers, including some of the sector’s most highly renowned Spanish and international architects, consultants, entrepreneurs and managers.
All of them will analyse the wellness industry and provide recommendations for developing the tourism and economic potential of these facilities. Networking spaces between professionals will also be provided at the event.
After being held 11 times with the Wellness and Spa sector as an important part of its offer, this year the Piscina and Wellness Barcelona exhibition has included the concept in its title and image, with the aim of enhancing synergies between the different water facilities geared to health, leisure, sport and wellbeing.
In addition to bringing together many sector exhibitors, for the second time running the show will also include the Wellness and Spa Event, a professional congress dedicated to the wellness field.
The guest of honour at the conference scheduled for 14 and 15 October 2015 will be Jeremy McCarthy, spa director at the Hong Kong Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group.
Speakers will include outstanding Spanish and international experts such as Roger Allen, co-founder of the specialist wellness and hospitality consultancy company Resource for Leisure Assets (Austria); Gérard André, manager for Southern Europe and North Africa of Tempo Hospitality Consulting (Switzerland); Dr. Franz Linser, managing director of Linser™ Hospitality (Austria) and Alfredo Pérez Sainz de la Maza, chairman of the Spanish Association Spatermal.
The architects Josep Maria Gutiérrez Noguera, partner architect of 080 Arquitectura (Spain) and Bob Henry, founder of RDH Architects (USA), will also be taking part, studying the key role of architecture in designing sustainable facilities able to make rational use of resources with minimum environmental impact.
Professionals such as Jean-Guy de Gabriac, founder and Manager of the Tip Touch Spa Training and Consultancy Company (Belgium) and Adília Oliveira, Spa Manager of the luxury Yeatman Hotel (Portugal) will give their views on profitable health and wellness centre management and the main trends in treatments and services to cater to today’s demand.
