In business field, the Ramon Llull Award honors posthumously Mr Bernardo Pons Casals.
From young age, he began working in the family business, Metalurgia Pons, which was initially a jewelry enterprise. It was however with the First World War that the company was reconfigured into a hinge factory, exporting nowadays its products to more than 40 countries all over the world.
