TecnoCampus

The TecnoCampus Foundation is a nonprofit organization initiated by the Mataró City Council and the
Maresme County Council in order to manage and develop the university studies and business and
enterprise park of the TecnoCampus. Governance is based on a system of public and private
collaboration, with a board of Governors made up of representatives from public authorities, the
university and the company, inspired by the triple helix model.

concentrated way in order to create a true virtuous circle between the university and business, with the
slogan ‘Where the university and the company go hand in hand’. It currently hosts 122 companies
employing over 700 people. Their main sectors are ICT, Health and Telemedicine, Circularity, Sustainable
Mobility, 3d Printing, Sports and Leisure and Blue economy. Plus, the Tecnocampus’ University, hosts
more than 10 research groups with own R&D activity, several pioneer Chairs such as the circularity, the
social economy and the aging and quality of life, a wide network of international collaboration and
Partnerships.

The park offers flexible office space and business growth services for resident companies, a
conference centre, a tech-based incubator and co-working centre with an accelerator programme and
fundraising service and investor club.

companies to launch products and services at an international level via expert consultancy on foreign
