In 2019 the Fundación Ramón Areces organized 115 events for its knowledge dissemination programs.
A significant number of these activities (scientific expert meetings, lecture series, round tables, conferences and symposia) were organized in collaboration with prestigious institutions, universities, royal academies and research centers of excellence, both national and international.
The Fundación Ramón Areces annually publishes works of scientific, historical, cultural and economic interest, which are made available to scholars and researchers for knowledge dissemination. These non-commercial publications constitute an archive for various research works, symposia and lecture series which have been held at the headquarters of the Foundation, and for texts by leading authors and collaborations with prestigious institutions. The Foundation publishes too a magazine dedicated to Sciences and Humanities.
The publications made in 2019 are available on this link.

On May 22nd, 2019, the Fundación Ramón Areces hosted The Nobel Prize Dialogue, held for the first time other European country than Sweden. It was organized in collaboration with Nobel Media AB and was titled The Future of Aging. The objective was to encourage a discussion at the highest level between science and society on such an important topic as aging. The Nobel Prize Dialogue is a full-day event that is inspired by the Nobel Week Dialogue held in Sweden at the Nobel Week since 2012.
The Nobel Prize Dialogue - May 2019
Nobel Laureates such as Finn Kydland, Edmund Phelps, Edvard Moser, Ada Yonath and Mario Vargas Llosa discussed with the Princess of Asturias Awards Laureates Valentin Fuster and Michael Sandel, and about thirty world-class experts some of the most acute scientific, economic, sociological, philosophical and cultural questions posed by the aging of the population.
At the welcome speech, Raimundo Pérez-Hernández, director of the Fundación Ramón Areces Foundation, stressed that “aging is an extraordinarily complex phenomenon in combination with many factors. This a core questions our societies are facing. How can we manage this new phenomenon if we haven't found a panacea?" Lars Heikensten, executive director of the Nobel Foundation, recalled that "Alfred Nobel wanted his prize to be awarded to those who had given the greatest benefit to humanity”.
