It is a source of great pride and satisfaction for me to preside over the first edition of IMPULSA, the main act of the Prince of Girona Foundation in this first year since its creation, an act that will bring us together in the emblematic city of Girona with the goal of together finding and recognizing the best global practices for developing an enterprising spirit in our youth.

IMPULSA originates with the clear aim of becoming an international benchmark, a catalyst of concerns, volitions and actions destined to promote the personal and collective development of our youth, seeking to create social value and solidarity, for the building of a future in which their concerns and initiatives will be the foundation of our progress as a community.

It is an honor for me, as Honorary President of the Prince of Girona Foundation, to be able to share this day with you, and learn together with people and institutions worthy of the most universal recognition.

To all of you, my very best regards.

His Royal Highness, Felipe de Borbón

Prince of Asturias and Girona
