The German luxury online store  Mytheresa, belonging to the  Neiman Marcus, group, has opened a technology hub in Barcelona, ​​in the Kursaal building on Rambla Catalunya, which will soon accommodate up to 70 workers.

With offices in London, Milan and a virtual office in New York, the Barcelona technology hub will have a direct connection to its headquarters in Munich and the Berlin office. Sources from the company confess their enthusiasm with the opening of Mytheresa’s offices in Barcelona, ​​currently considered one of the leading technological hubs of reference in Europe, which offers a unique pole for attracting international talent, and which the city’s growing access to the global technology scene is of great strategic value for the continued expansion of MyTheresa.
