An exclusive, invite-only retreat for experienced entrepreneurs. Focuses on high-level strategy, peer accountability, and deep-dive discussions in an intimate setting. Limited to a small group to ensure meaningful connections.
DC BLACK Barcelona returns in July 2026 for its highly anticipated gathering of location-independent founders. This event has become a staple for members, known for its exceptional member satisfaction and growing demand, with previous years selling out. The focus for 2026 is on enhancing value by streamlining the experience, reducing costs, and tailoring the program directly to attendee needs.
Attendees will experience a more accessible event, with a significant price reduction achieved by removing non-essential elements while maintaining the core quality of programming. The event centers around member-led activities, offering opportunities for informal gatherings such as cycling, city tours, or even more adventurous options like axe throwing and paintballing during downtime. These activities are organized by members themselves, ensuring a diverse range of choices outside of the core sessions.
The heart of DC BLACK Barcelona lies in its carefully crafted sessions designed to foster progress and clarity for entrepreneurs. These will include group discussions, practical exercises, and presentations, all planned based on the feedback and requirements of early registrants, giving them a stake in shaping the event's direction. The central location within Barcelona provides a convenient and inspiring backdrop, with all activities taking place within a vibrant neighborhood that requires no additional transportation.
The event takes place over three days, beginning with a relaxed welcome dinner to facilitate connections. The following days are dedicated to intensive masterminds, tactical presentations, and sharing insights, all within comfortable meeting spaces. Evenings offer opportunities to unwind with meals and activities designed for camaraderie and fun. The final day focuses on reflection and consolidating learnings, concluding with a celebratory dinner.
DC BLACK Barcelona is hosted in a well-appointed venue that serves as both the event hub and a recommended accommodation option for attendees. This central location boasts amenities such as a rooftop terrace, pool, and spa, encouraging a cohesive and enjoyable experience. The programming emphasizes high-level conversations and meaningful connections, empowering founders to tackle their biggest business challenges and depart with actionable strategies and valuable relationships.
