WHO WE ARE
SOERMAR FUNDATION AND TECHNOLOGICAL CENTER
In 1988, the need to apply technology in the manufacture of fishing vessels led to the creation of the Soermar Technology Center,which would help small and medium-sized shipyards in the design and construction of vessels with the most advanced technology in the sector.
In 2002 the Soermar Technological Center Foundation was established, the purpose of which will be to seek new lines of joint action in Technical and Technological matters that improve the competitiveness of the Shipyards.
The main lines of action of both entities are based on:
Elaborar proyectos de Investigación,
Desarrollo e Innovación,
tanto a nivel nacional como europeo.
Support shipyards and companies in the maritime sector in the application of new technologies: industry 4.0, cloud computing, Big Data, robotization, artificial intelligence, with new business models, designing smart, energy-efficient ships and devices, connected and non-polluting that will modernize maritime transport.
Analyse new emerging technologies and their application within the maritime sector.
Promote all those actions that may result in a competitive improvement of shipyards and companies in the maritime sector through an increase in the efficiency of their industrial activity.
Support to companies in the maritime sector in the search for financial aid and instruments for the materialization of R + D + i projects.
Así mismo, la Fundación C.T. Soermar colabora activamente en el ámbito académico a través de la Cátedra Soermar-UPM, desarrollando jornadas técnicas, potenciando la colaboración entre universidad y empresa a través de programas de becas, premios, webinar, etc.
En el ámbito específico del I+D+i de la Industria Naval, los Astilleros Privados han autorizado a Soermar para que ostente su representación e interlocución en defensa de sus intereses, colaborando activamente con las administraciones públicas europeas, nacionales y autonómicas.
A total of 19 Shipyards make up the Technology Center and the Foundation, establishing the lines of action annually through their Governing Bodies.
