Robotekin takes its first steps

Posted on febrero 23, 2023febrero 17, 2023 by Irati

The Provincial Council of Alava promotes, with the collaboration of the Basque Government, the first robotic `hub’ of Euskadi, in order to promote cooperation between companies linked to the sector and to develop the statue of Araba and Euskadi in the field. 

On February 2nd, the Araba Technology Park hosted, in the capital city of the Basque Country (Vitoria-Gasteiz), an informative meeting to present the foundational bases and objectives of Robotekin, the Robotics and Automation ecosystem hub, before a wide and diverse sample of companies and sectors of the province of Araba in the Basque Country.

This center, whose headquarters will be in the Technological Park of Araba, aims to generate a meeting place for the ecosystem based on trust and coopetition between companies and agents linked to the Robotics and Automation sector to position Araba and the Basque Country as a destination for talent, investment and quality employment, with the ultimate goal of boosting the competitiveness of the economic fabric.

With a view to the creation of “Robotekin”, dozens of preparatory meetings have been held with the main local agents belonging to the field in question to test their needs and interests, having received a positive response from them, and international success stories have been studied, such as, for example, that of Odense Robotics in Denmark, which show the opportunities presented by a ‘hub’ of these characteristics for the local value chain: Users; service providers; manufacturers; R&D&I; Training; and Startups.

In the coming weeks after the presentation, the Association that will legally support «Robotekin» will be formally constituted, its founding members will be known and the opportunity to join will be open to all those companies that identify with the objectives of the `hub’.

Robotekin da sus primeros pasos

La Diputación Foral de Alava impulsa, con la colaboración del Gobierno Vasco, el primer `hub´ de robótica de Euskadi.

Vitoria-Gasteiz, 2 de febrero de 2023.  El Parque Tecnológico de Araba ha acogido este jueves, 2 de febrero, ante una amplia y diversa muestra de empresas y sectores del Territorio, una reunión informativa para presentar las bases fundacionales y objetivos de Robotekin, hub del ecosistema de Robótica y Automatización.

Este polo, cuya sede estará en el PTA, pretende generar un lugar de encuentro del ecosistema basado en la confianza y la coopetición entre empresas y agentes vinculados al sector de la Robótica y la Automatización para situar a Álava y a Euskadi como un destino tractor de talento, inversión y empleo de calidad, con el objetivo último de impulsar la competitividad del tejido económico.

De cara a la conformación de Robotekin se han realizado decenas de reuniones preparatorias con los principales agentes locales pertenecientes al ámbito en cuestión para testar sus necesidades e intereses, habiendo recibido una respuesta positiva entre los mismos, y se han estudiado casos de éxito internacional como, por ejemplo, el de Odense Robotics en Dinamarca y que ponen de manifiesto las oportunidades que presenta un `hub´ de estas características para la cadena de valor local: Usuarios; proveedores de servicios; fabricantes; I+D+i; Formación; y Startups.

En la presentación de este proyecto han intervenido la Teniente de Diputado General de Álava y Diputada Foral de Desarrollo Económico, Innovación y Reto Demográfico, Pilar García de Salazar Olano; la Directora de Transformación Digital y Emprendimiento del Departamento de Desarrollo Económico, Sostenibilidad y Medio Ambiente del Gobierno Vasco, Leyre Madariaga Gangoiti; el Director de BIC Araba, David Montero; y Emilio Titos, quien acompañará la puesta en marcha del proyecto aportando su conocimiento y experiencia.

En las próximas semanas se constituirá formalmente la Asociación que sustentará jurídicamente a Robotekin, se conocerán sus miembros fundacionales y se abrirá la oportunidad de adhesión a todas aquellas empresas que se identifiquen con los objetivos del `hub´.

Robotekinek lehen urratsak eman ditu

Arabako Foru Aldundiak, Eusko Jaurlaritzaren laguntzarekin, Euskadiko lehen ‘hub’ robotikoa bultzatu du.

Vitoria-Gasteiz, 2023ko otsailaren 2a. Arabako Parke Teknologikoak informazio-bilera bat egin du ostegun honetan, otsailak 2, lurraldeko hainbat enpresa eta sektoreren aurrean, Robotekin, Robotika eta Automatizazio ekosistemaren hub-a, sortzeko oinarriak eta helburuak aurkezteko.

Gune horren egoitza PTAn egongo da, eta ekosistemaren topaleku bat sortu nahi du, Robotikaren eta Automatizazioaren sektorearekin lotutako enpresen eta eragileen arteko konfiantzan eta kooperetizioan oinarritua, Araba eta Euskadi kalitatezko talentuaren, inbertsioaren eta enpleguaren bultzatzaile gisa kokatzeko, ehun ekonomikoaren lehiakortasuna bultzatzeko azken helburuarekin.

Robotekinen eraketari begira, dozenaka prestakuntza-bilera egin dira dagokion eremuko tokiko eragile nagusiekin, haien beharrak eta interesak aztertzeko, eta erantzun positiboa jaso dute haien artean. Nazioartean arrakasta izan duten kasuak aztertu dira, hala nola Odense Roboticsena Danimarkan, eta agerian utzi dute zer aukera dauden ezaugarri horiek dituen «hub» batek tokiko balio-katerako: erabiltzaileak, zerbitzu-hornitzaileak, fabrikatzaileak, I+G+b, prestakuntza eta startupak.

Proiektuaren aurkezpenean parte hartu dute Arabako ahaldun nagusiorde eta Ekonomiaren Garapen, Berrikuntza eta Erronka Demografikoko foru diputatu Pilar García de Salazar Olanok; Eusko Jaurlaritzako Ekonomiaren Garapen, Iraunkortasun eta Ingurumen Saileko Eraldaketa Digitaleko eta Ekintzailetzako zuzendari Leyre Madariaga Gangoitik; BIC Arabako zuzendari David Monterok; eta Emilio Titosek, proiektua abian jartzen lagunduko baitu, haien ezagutza eta esperientzia emanez.

Datozen asteetan formalki eratuko da Robotekin juridikoki sostengatuko duen Elkartea, haren sorrerako kideak ezagutuko dira eta «hub» delakoaren helburuekin identifikatzen diren enpresa guztiei atxikitzeko aukera zabalduko zaie.
