The recital was held on Tuesday, June 18, at the headquarters of the House of the Italians and was attended by the full academician and president of the Governing Board, Alfredo Rocafort; the also academician and president of the Institute of International Cooperation of the RAED José Ramón Calvo; the honorary academician and consul of Japan in Barcelona, Naohito Watanabe, and the full academician Carlo Maria Gallucci.
The Royal Academy has established for several months a close collaboration with academic authorities in Hungary thanks to the mediation of the consul of Hungary in Barcelona, Barnabas Kovacs.

In this event, which has the collaboration of the Széchenyi University of Györ and the Central Bank of Hungary, will be taught about 20 conferences in the usual format of the Royal Academy, limited to 15 minutes and with an informative character, and teachers will also participate Hungarian professors and academicians.
A series of cultural activities will be organized by the Hungarian authorities, such as visits to the Parliament, the Budapest Opera and a river cruise on the Danube. The scientific sessions will conclude with a gala dinner hosted by the minister of Innovation and Technology. The details of this congress will be offered in the coming days.
