In 2012, Marcelo Muñoz founded “Cátedra China,” a think tank composed of scholars, entrepreneurs, and former political figures engaged in China’s political and economic research and cooperation with China, serving as an important platform for various sectors in Spain to understand China. The “Cátedra China” Foundation highly identifies with China’s political, economic, and social development model and plays an active role in enhancing mutual understanding and friendship between the two countries and deepening exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations.
