Emerging Technologies: the new tip of spearhead of the high innovation innovation of Izertis

Positioning Izertis as a top quality service provider of high technological innovation at national and international level is the mission of Emerging Technologies, an area of the multinational technology company that seeks to become a spearhead for the most disruptive technologies: Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, IoT, Cyber and Quantum Computing. A department that deepens the company's capacity in the development of projects of a markedly differentiating nature and which aims to double its size in the next two years to become a strategic partner for the execution of projects with the highest degree of innovation.

The department has a clear product orientation, focusing Izertis' extensive experience in cutting-edge, innovative and differentiating technologies on the market

Which projects bear the stamp of the Emerging Technologies team? Some examples are: and that value chain optimisation for the battery manufacturing industry (Gigabat: AI and blockchain); decentralised digital identity solutions (Identify:blockchain); a technological infrastructure to ensure the veracity and traceability of EU citizens' credentials allowing the exchange of documentation between countries (EBSI-Vector: blockchain); industrial research into treatments based on the generation of new cellularised and personalised bio-implants (BioPrintIA -AI and 3D bioprinting); and the construction of a cyber threat protection system in an industrial environment (Segres: cyber-IA).

The department has a clear product orientation, focusing Izertis' extensive experience in cutting-edge, innovative and differentiating technologies on the market. This facilitates a more agile and easily scalable production start-up. As a result, larger projects can be carried out more efficiently and more quickly. An objective that is achieved thanks to the union of three hitherto complementary areas: Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain, key lines of Innovation at Izertis, and IoT, which contributes the recently integrated Techsociety. "Historically, more work has been done in the area of research with the implementation of projects in the field of innovation. The growth of the department will be marked by this greater positioning towards the market, of increasing the development of high value innovation, says Miguel Ángel Acero, Director of Digital Transformation Strategy and Innovation
Technological.

This innovative area becomes the main support team to guarantee the proper implementation of projects, helping the department to grow steadily

One of the distinguishing features of the Emerging Technologies department is its ability to working in consortium models, with a large number of partners from different countries, both from public as well as private, with Izertis playing a leading technological role. As an example, it is worth mentioning the recognition of the INATBA award for the best blockchain project in Europe, which recognises the EBSI-Vector project led by Izertis. The project integrates 52 partners from 9 European countries, including technology companies, ministries and state currency agencies.

It is also worth highlighting the close cooperation that, thanks to the work carried out up to the innovation area is maintained with leading technology centres at the national and international level national or international, as well as with the innovation areas of large global companies. This innovative area becomes the main support team to guarantee the proper implementation of projects, helping the department to grow steadily. "The acquired muscle, the size of the team itself and the relevant type of projects in which we are involved made it necessary to create a larger structure within Izertis with the aim of positioning the company as a quality service provider of high innovation in emerging technologies at national and international level" says Miguel Ángel Acero.
