artica+i and K-Node join forces to promote innovation in Madrid
Recently, artica+i has joined forces and synergies with K-Node, an initiative of the Autonomous University of Madrid for the promotion of an innovation ecosystem in the north of Madrid which, based on knowledge, aims to be a meeting point for companies, research centres and investors in order to apply the results of R&D&I to products and services.
For its part, artica+i has more than 25 years of experience in the management and dynamisation of R&D&I projects useful for industry, helping to turn ideas into projects. To achieve this, its Innovation Consultancy team implements the necessary mechanisms to match technological supply and demand, “going to incubators and technology parks where we offer ourselves as technological agents”, as stated by Rafael Suárez, sales director of artica+i.
Furthermore, artica+i places special emphasis on channelling investment and innovation grants, as well as on the technical-administrative coordination of national and international R&D&I projects.
All this, together with its track record as a benchmark engineering company in the agri-food sector, makes artica+i a strategic ally for K-Node due to its experience in the scientific-technical ecosystem, but also due to its close relationship with the industrial and technological fabric.
Thanks to this union, both partners are taking an important step forward in the promotion of innovation and collaboration between business and science to promote joint R&D&I projects and boost the connection between the generation of knowledge and the implementation of differential solutions and technologies. According to Rafael Suárez, the key to the success of an R&D&I project is “to seek the common good between companies and research centres; a point of balance that helps everyone to work comfortably and that the project can fit together so that the results are successful”.
