Monday 6th of July. Four days until the start of the conference and it has arrived the moment to present the leader of the organizing committee, the brave Ms. Sheila Álvaro, Organizing Committee President!!

"AIESEC for me is a tool. Each person decides how to use it and each one of us gets different outcomes from it. Nevertheless, no matter who you are, AIESEC is a challenge, a non-comfort zone, an inspirational place, an ambitious objective​. And, in the end, AIESEC leaves a non-indifferent footprint that makes us feel unique and powerful. And that's called leadership."

Thank you for your strength and bravery; and for being there in the toughest moments. Glad that it was you who started this.

Happy Sunday!! Time has arrived to present the communicator Mr. Roger Franch, Organizing Committee VicePresident Marketing!!

“For me AIESEC is the world’s best kept secret. It is a door to a world full of opportunities; a world you have to embrace. It is the proof that youth is not asleep; it is the fact that youth doesn’t want to be no longer the future, it is the present, and we have to fight for that present. AIESEC is a chance to go wrong, to fail, to stand up, to start over; in the real world. It is out of your comfort zone, and becomes your comfort zone, to after become out of the comfort zone again. AIESEC is real, it is huge, it gives the chance for the world to interact with each other and it is a voice for youth. AIESEC impacts others and always impacts yourself. I would not be who I am today, I would not have done what I have done, I would not have the ambition and the desire to create the world a better place if it wasn’t for AIESEC. It’s everybody’s world, it is our responsibility to shape it.”

Thank you for innovating,

Happy Saturday everyone!! The start of the conference is near and it is time to present the seller Ms. Natalia Arias, Organizing Committee VicePresident Partners!!

“To me AIESEC is the way to go. I wish I had known this incredible platform four or five years ago. I have always believed in people and I mean it in a way that no one can inspire me more than regular people doing extraordinary things. AIESEC is the exception for that famous quote “youth is wasted on the young”. That is definitely not true when you picture in your mind the power and the impact woman and man have at 20 years old. I believe in second chances, I believe in the pain that make you grow and I believe every single thing I am doing right now it will help me to live my dream. You can only do that with an inspiring group of people: the AIESECers.”

Thank you for your dedication and all the results you have obtained.

Dear plenary of AIESEC in Spain, it is time to present the Organizing Committee of Reload Barcelona 2015! First of all, with much love for all of you; dearest Ms. Ana Parfión, Organizing Committee VicePresident Servicing!!

“For me AIESEC is that kind of things impossible to explain because you have to live them to understand what an organization as this one can bring you. AIESEC was a turning point in my life and in every conference I learn something new and different about myself and after being in so many conferences I've been discovering the kind of leadership I have inside. If I'm sincere, it's very difficult to me to see the end of this impactful experience and I want to still developing myself through other position inside AIESEC in the future to build the leader I have inside. 

 AIESECly yours, 

 OCVP Servicing. At your service ;)”

Very proud to have you in the team Ana. With love.

“Curiosity and happiness defines Ivan. He is curious about people’ stories, cultures and experiences and happy when ideas are turned into projects.  This curious catalan 22 years old guy is passionate about communication and physology as well as project and team management. In a near future, he wants to merge all his passions together and strat up a movement for story-makers: those who spend their lives doing strange and responsible things with weird and unconformist people. His transformational journey began with AIESEC and from that moment he constantly asks himself: “Are you happy or just really comfortable?”

Welcome to a new adventure in AIESEC in Spain, Ivan.
