PATRICIO ECHEVERRIA MORTE
The Opportunity Map outcome resulted in the launching of an internal programme for the
implementation of innovation projects in the short, medium and long term, including:
• New product ranges for its two business lines.
• New services for its two business lines.
• Projects to incorporate new technologies, materials and processes.
• Opportunities related to the business model review and new sectors for future expansion.
MORTE is a family business with over 40 year’ experience in the ceramics sector which despite
leading the European sector, is interested in diversifying its activity to guarantee their market
competitiveness while distributing risks.
This strategy focused on product and market diversification has enabled the company to
identify three market niches in sectors unknown to MORTE until now such as the food industry,
composite machining and recycling.

Technology and
Innovation Strategy
TECNALIA along with the Ministry of Industry and Foreign Trade of the Arab Republic of Egypt
has defined the national innovation strategy for the Egyptian industry sector which is based on
three major pillars to make sectors with more weight in their industry more competitive:
• Increasing export capacity and attracting foreign investment.
• Boosting industrial productivity.
• Rising the industry technology level.
TECNALIA has contributed to promoting innovation in the European advanced manufacture
sector through the strategic integration of Key Enabling Technologies (KET) and identifying
business models and strategies to adapt to the new manufacturing environment conditions:
• A comprehensive study of KETs in Europe was carried out in several industrial sectors.
• Strategic cross-sector directives and guidelines were defined for KET integration in European
industry.

as well as computer vision reference system.
In co-operation with AIRBUS GROUP, among
others.
This is a unique machine-tool nationwide which
facilitates the creation of large metal parts from
scratch with high precision finishes, as well as
for the repair of high value parts in sectors such
as the automotive and aeronautical sectors. It
achieves material and energy savings of up to 60%
compared to conventional methods. IBARMIA,
the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU)
and TECNALIA have developed this solution in
co-operation, within a record time of
9 months.

Europe to develop critical technologies for
autonomous mobile systems. As part of land
application (as well as air and sea applications),
TECNALIA in association with AZKAR, MASER,
FICOSA and ELECNOR-DEIMOS is developing
technology for autonomous land vehicles.
AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES
New planning tools for European distribution

a person’s activities and habits, and identifying
any changes which may be symptoms of
disorders related to neurodegenerative
disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease.
Motor recovery of upper limb paralysis as a
result of a cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
using the brain-machine interface. The aim
is for the patient to be able to move and
control movements in the paralysed limb
naturally, recovering autonomy and functional
independence levels.

49. FAST enables optimisation of the software
factory code on the basis of re-using it but
without generating dependency. This makes
“reversibility” possible at any time. This is a
multi-language tool adaptable to the needs of
each factory, providing control and traceability
of the code generated. Towards software
industrialisation.
QING SOLUTIONS is an initiative initially
created by TECNALIA for Grupo Palladium
hotels, offering innovative technological
solutions for the tourist sector. Through our
“smart bracelets” we have created a safe
ecosystem for transactions, accesses and
identification in a customisable way to enhance
the customer’s services experience and for easy
integration with information and
CRM systems.

50. The Mogel district in Eibar and Sestao are good
examples of how retrofitting and integrated urban
regeneration have achieved Integral Sustainable
Urban Development with the collaboration of
TECNALIA, which benefits numerous families
and residents in both municipalities generating
employment and social cohesion, reducing
CO2
emissions and integrating accessibility,
environmental and ICT criteria.
Vitoria-Gasteiz and Donostia-San Sebastián,
with the collaboration of TECNALIA, will
develop smart city models regarding energy
efficiency, sustainable mobility and ICT
application. Actions related to this initiative
were implemented in the Coronación and
Vega del Urumea districts respectively and over
1,200 families will benefit from the results.
