  15. UA Funds for R&D (2004) to support:

  16. European projects 2002-2004

  17. Technology Transfer Innovation Support

  18. Technology Transfer → European projects for Technology Transfer (IRC-CENEMES & IPR Helpdesk)→ National initiatives for Technology Transfer (RED OTRI) → Regional Network for Technology Transfer (RUVID)→ Local/ university initiatives (CIENCIATEC)

  19. CENEMES IRC-CENEMES CENEMES is a service for promotion and assistance of SME´ s, universities and technology centres from the C. Valenciana, Murcia and the Baleares, to reach technology cooperation with Europe

  20. IPR-HELPDESK The main objective of the IPR-Helpdesk is to assist potential and current contractors taking part in EC funded research and technological development projects in Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) issues. The IPR-Helpdesk also advises on EC diffusion and protection rules and other issues relating to IPR in international research projects.

  21. Office for Transfer of Research Results • Member of REDOTRI: the Spanish network of universities´ Offices for Transfer of Research Results • 170 OTRI offices in Spain • To promote the production of knowledge in Spanish universities according to the requirements of its environment and to facilitate its transfer

  22. RUVID • Founded in 2002 as an initiative of the public and private Valencian universities • To foster scientific research, technological development and innovation (R+D+I) of the regional universities acting as an interface between government, university and industry

  23. CIENCIATEC 2005 • Exhibition to promote UA research activities in the local environment and stimulate innovation • (Thematic) Round Table Meetings with UA research teams & local companies, sessions parallel to the CIENCIATEC activities

  30. Outline • Structure • Location

  31. Structure of the Science Park • Scientific section • Technological section • Strategic support and technology transfer section

  32. Objective of the Science Park Create an innovative environment that serves as a platform to increase regional development and competitiveness of companies through business incubators situated at or linked to the Alicante Science Park

  33. Fundamentals of the Science Park • Stimulate and manage knowledge and technology streams between universities, research institutes, companies and markets • Stimulate the creation and growth of innovative companies through business incubation schemes and spin-off activity • Provide space and high quality infrastructure

  34. Mission of the Science Park (I) • To function as a contact centre for: • Companies • New companies, mainly innovative companies • Research teams and institutes • Public/ private laboratories for R&D • And provide high-quality logistic and scientific services

  35. PUBLIC-PRIVATE LABS NEW COMPANIES BUSINESS INCUBATION SPIN-OFF COMPANIES INNOVATIVE COMPANIES TECHNOLOGICAL SERVICES (SCIENCE PARK) RESEARCH TEAMS & INSTITUTES MANAGEMENT & ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT Mission of the Science Park (II)

  36. ALICANTE Science ParkBusiness Formation • Phase I: Selection of viable projects that aim to work in applied and innovative research • Phase II: Negotiation phase, formulation of cooperation and agreements between stakeholders • Phase III: Identification of funds available for the realisation of the project. The project has to be supported by a business plan that includes a feasibility and market study • Phase IV: Formation of the company

  37. Incorporation of companies Eligibility criteria: • Companies that focus on R&D, industrial design, engineering solutions or support of activities for commercialisation of technology • Companies that are able to plan and conduct short-term R&D activities (1-2 years) • Companies that have established links that enforce cooperation between companies (local and/or international) and universities relating to technological development or commercialisation of technology • Companies that have systems in place to comply with environmental regulations (waste management, water treatment,…) • Companies that are enrolled in support programs
