The local industry has also taken action by modernising its offer. As a result, Madrid has become one of Europe's top MICE destinations and the country's leading business city.<\/p>\n<h3>Will the AZCA area lose its status as a business district to Cuatro Torres?<\/h3>\n<p><strong>D. N.<\/strong> - AZCA is not just a business district: it is also a residential area where families and sports enthusiasts live side by side with business people. This district is also a very interesting example of the<strong>modern spanish architecture<\/strong>This is one of the largest concentrations of fashion venues in Madrid. There are also plenty of restaurants, bars and places to walk and do sport. The<strong>AZCA<\/strong> and <strong>Cuatro Torres<\/strong> are completely complementary: while some world-class companies still have their headquarters in AZCA, others have moved into the four towers and have made them their emblem.<\/p>\n<h3>Are new infrastructures planned for the north of the city?<\/h3>\n<p><strong>D. N.<\/strong> - The reopening of the Palais des Congr\u00e8s will certainly be accompanied by new projects. We are also awaiting confirmation of the hotel and commercial project at <strong>Santiago Bernabeu stadium<\/strong>. Finally, a fifth building is being prepared at Cuatro Torres, in addition to the <strong>Operacion Chamartin project<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_67309\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67309\" style=\"width: 564px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Madrid-Convention-Bureau-reunions.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-67309\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Madrid-Convention-Bureau-reunions.jpg\" alt=\"Madrid Convention Bureau\" width=\"564\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Madrid-Convention-Bureau-reunions.jpg 564w, https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Madrid-Convention-Bureau-reunions-300x172-derived.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 564px) 100vw, 564px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-67309\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Growth in the number of business meetings in Madrid<\/figcaption><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"seriesmeta\">Article 1 of 4 in this dossier <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/destination\/madrid-azca-letoile-del-nord-de-la-castellana\" class=\"series-1789\" title=\"Dossier - Madrid - AZCA: the Castellana&#039;s North Star\">Dossier - Madrid - AZCA: the Castellana's North Star<\/a><\/div><p>David Noack, Director of the Madrid Convention Bureau, explains how Madrid has risen to the forefront as a leading destination for business tourism.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":67287,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[91],"tags":[1041],"type-darticle":[51],"n_magazine":[1773],"class_list":["post-67285","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-quartiers-d-affaires","tag-madrid","series-madrid-azca-letoile-du-nord-de-la-castellana","type-darticle-interview","n_magazine-n155","vapo-free"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Rencontre avec David Noack, Directeur du Madrid Convention Bureau<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"David Noack, Directeur du Madrid Convention Bureau, fait un point sur les atouts de la destination pour le tourisme d&#039;affaires.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/david-noack-madrid-convention-bureau\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"&quot;AZCA n\u2019est pas juste un quartier d\u2019affaires&quot; : D.
