Cuatrecasas has been presented with the EMPRESA CULTURA 2026 award (large company category) by Fundació Catalunya Cultura. The award recognizes the firm’s commitment to promoting culture in Catalonia and its contribution to the cultural sector from the legal field. The ceremony was held at the Phenomena Experience hall during the La Nit de l’Empresa i la Cultura event organized by the foundation.

The jury highlighted how culture is integrated into Cuatrecasas’s identity, as well as its commitment to art, music, literature, heritage and popular traditions. It also valued the initiatives focused on the wellbeing of its professionals and their families, and on reinforcing their sense of belonging.

Javier Fontcuberta, the firm’s managing partner, accepted the award. He expressed his thanks for the award, saying: “This award encourages us to continue to work with and for culture. Today's pace is very fast and seems to demand immediate results. Defending culture is also about defending free time: time to read, time to ponder a painting, time to listen to a symphony, where everything has a slower pace. Time for thinking and sharing what makes us human. Thanks to Fundació Catalunya Cultura for this award and for bringing us together around this shared commitment. We accept it with gratitude and a determination to continue defending culture together.”

Legal knowledge at the service of culture

The EMPRESA CULTURA award, which recognizes companies that stand out for their commitment to promoting and supporting culture in Catalonia, places value on the legal experience that Cuatrecasas brings to the cultural sector and its ambition to set an example that inspires other organizations to also support culture.

The award has two categories: one for large companies and one for small and medium-sized companies. This year, Fundació Catalunya Cultura has also recognized Grup Vesta, winner in the small and medium-sized company category.

Speaking at the ceremony were Eloi Planes (chair of the foundation) and Albert Dalmau (minister of the Catalan presidency), and attending were Sònia Hernández Almodóvar (Catalan minister for culture) and Miquel Sàmper (Catalan minister for business and labor).

During the ceremony, the IMPULSA CULTURA 2026 award was also presented to Open Brains, for its proposal to bring neuroscience closer to citizens and to promote critical thinking through workshops, shows, and a humorous, animated web series.
