Coordinat pel Fraunhofer i format per 50 [...]
The Eurecat technology centre has developed a new platform to obtain and validate ingredients and nutraceuticals that makes it possible to identify and determine their potential biological activities, using sustainable and scalable methodologies in industrial processes and new screening models, which it presented at the Nutraceuticals Europe – Summit & Expo in Barcelona. The [...]
The European Commission has selected the Catalan public-private consortium DIH4CAT, of which Eurecat is part, as one of the EU hubs responsible for the digital transformation of SMEs. DIH4CAT thus becomes one of the European Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIH) with the aim of contributing to getting 75 per cent of European SMEs to have [...]
The technologies that facilitate decarbonisation ‘are varied and it’s very important to reduce their costs and increase their robustness’, based on green hydrogen, the use of biogas, the development of batteries to store renewable energy, advanced technologies to separate and capture gases, new materials and digital technologies, according to Miquel Rovira, the director of [...]
The new requirements of electric mobility ‘are changing the way to design cars to resist collision’, and hot stamping technology for the manufacture of light sheet metal components with high mechanical performance ‘means that in the event of an accident, there’s no intrusion towards the passengers and the battery’, explained Daniel Casellas the Eurecat technology [...]
The Eurecat technology centre is organising, together with Luleå University of Technology in Sweden, the biannual CHS2 conference, the leading international event in hot stamping technology for the manufacture of lightweight sheet metal components with high mechanical performance, with special interest for industries such as automotive to reduce vehicle weight, in light of the challenges arising [...]
The White Paper on Artificial Intelligence applied to the Cultural and Experience-based Industry sector notes the prominent role that festivals and other cultural activities, tourism experiences or sporting events can have as test environments for powerhouse projects for introducing AI in this sector, as well as public-private innovation and the training of talent, in [...]
The Government of Catalonia and a dozen Catalan economic agents, technology and knowledge centres, including Eurecat, announced last Thursday the creation of the Digital Innovation Hub of Catalonia (DIH4CAT) to accelerate the incorporation of advanced technology by Catalan companies and institutions. This is a public-private consortium promoted by the Catalan Ministry of Business and [...]
Robots equipped with multimodal interfaces in speech, conversation and other communicative elements that facilitate natural and empathetic patient interaction ‘will take on a growing role to complement both in-person and remote health and social care, making it sustainable’. This is how it was explained by Felip Miralles, the director of the Eurecat technology centre’s [...]
Technological innovation is strategic in the development of new foods and ingredients in the food industry that contribute to the well-being of different population groups, where nutrition and health, robotics, digitalisation and sustainability will be the main pillars. These are solutions that open the doors to ‘an important hybridisation of digital and industrial technologies, [...]
