TECNIO Entities, a Label for Entrepreneurial Innovation
New TECNIO label was recently presented by the Catalan government. This accreditation is given to Catalan entities that develop and offer technology to companies. As a first step, 54 innovation providers are given this label that awards technology and knowledge transfer-to-the-market expertise that can help companies develop new products and services. This label remains valid until 2019 and will be extended to new entities in further steps.

TECNIO label awards universities, research centers, technology centers, technology transfer offices, engineering and technology based companies. Different entities from the UAB university Barcelona Synchrotron Park partner are among the first accredited entities.

TECNIO label aims at helping companies identify where they can find the technologies they need to carry out the development of new products and services. This initiative strives to establish technology transfer as a cornerstone for increasing the number of Catalan innovative companies and make them more competitive (according to the Catalan Innovation Barometer, 56.8% of companies with more than 9 employees are innovative).

New TECNIO entities can take advantage of this label to gain visibility, in particular from ACCIÓ, the public agency in charge of the competitiveness of Catalan companies.
