bilbON Bizkaia Nº10 (summer 2024)

The 10 challenge
You have in front of you the 10th issue of BilbOn magazine. For those of us who are involved in this project, which was once a dream and has become a reality, it is an important issue. And also a challenge.

This “10” means that we have completed more than two years of existence. It means that we are heading for our third. And that we have consolidated our position. It means that we have conquered our place in tourist offices, in hotels and in many other places. It means that we were right in our choice of recycled paper, colour and English. That the subjects and the people we have chosen to tell everyone about Bilbao and Bizkaia are, indeed, interesting.

This “10” means that we say thank you. That we are grateful for the trust of public administrations, institutions, private companies and people who know us, trust in our work and share our objectives. Thank you very much.

The challenge for us is to multiply that 10-fold. And to be able to tell many more travellers that they are in a unique environment that will provide them with unique experiences and memories that will be transformed into emotions.

This is the great power of Bilbao and Bizkaia.
10 out of 10.
