IBERDROLA'S INNOVATION NETWORK

Abstract

Iberdrola’s Innovation Network was created as a place where the company shares and promotes ideas and projects with its technological partners. The network consists of multiple “nodes” each one with its specific scope where the company exposes its vision and strategy related to the node’s thematic. It also enables a interchange of opinions, know-how and resources in order to develop R&D projects that solve Iberdrola’s needs. Based on the concept of Open Innovation, the network is open for anybody that wants to join and that has interest in the diverse matters treated in the nodes. The Innovation Network is targeted to manufacturers/providers, universities, technological centers and associations. The Innovation Network offers to its members the acquisition of relevant information and know-how, as well as the possibility of participating in the projects that are generated. Iberdrola’s strong commitment with Innovation, together with its definitive internationalization process, make that the available resources provided by Iberdrola itself, as well as the interest areas and the projects are very important for any stakeholder in the sector.
