7. Spanish Technology Platform of the Automotive Sector

8. SERtec SERtec, the Spanish Technology Platform of the Automotive Sector, was launched in March 2006, as an initiative of five institutions linked to the Automotive sector: SERNAUTO: Spanish Association of Automotive Equipment and Components Manufacturers, as main proposer and coordinator. CIE AUTOMOTIVE: Manufacturer of automotive components and sub-assemblies. FITSA: Foundation Technological Institute for Automotive Safety. TECNALIA AUTOMOCIÓN: Automotive Sector Unit of TECNALIA Technology Corporation. INSIA-UPM: Institute for Automotive Safety and Research linked to the Polytechnic University in Madrid.

9. The Automotive Sector in Spain • 3rd largest car maker in Europe and 7th in the world. The biggest constructors manufacture in Spain, however, they do not have decision centres and only scarce R&D activity in Spain. • Largest producer of industrial vehicles in Europe: More than 82% of the vehicles are exported to 90 countries in the world. • Strong equipment and component manufacturers industry: • 6th in the world in turnover: 32.873,2 M€ in 2007 (54% exports) and over 250,000 employees. • 1000 companies, representing 6% GNP, from SMEs to large international groups. • Strong innovation capability and experience, quality certifications: average R&D investment of about 3% turnover.

10. Objectives SERtec is a means of developing and monitoring initiatives among the different agents involved in the sector’s chain of innovation in Spain, in order to create a culture of innovation and a common course of action with the aim of increasing the competitiveness of automotive sector companies in view of the new challenges they face, through research, development and innovation in products and processes. General objectives: • Foster cooperation in R&D and innovation. • Achieve the European leadership of the sector. • Promote and increase participation in European Research Programmes. • Generate high added value products and differentiating technologies. • Promote sustainability, employment and value chain Specific objectives: • Creation of research consortia. • Promote the integration and capacity University-Technological Agents-Companies • Define the Strategic Research Agenda • Establish the short, medium and long term sector priorities.
