At Fundació Leitat, we are an engine of innovation that boosts the development of the R&D&I. We present ourselves as an integral platform where science, technology and entrepreneurship converge, through four strategic activities that complement and reinforce each other.

From the management of cutting-edge scientific and technical infrastructures in Terrassa and Barcelona, we offer the ideal site for the advancement of research and innovation. Our laboratories, equipped with state-of-the-art technology, are the perfect environment for ideas to turn into real solutions.

We are specialised in transfer technology and knowledge valorisation, ensuring that scientific advances translate into products and services with a tangible impact on society. Active collaboration with R&D&I entities, both national and international, ampliflies our capabilities, fostering synergies that drive high-value projects.​​

In addition, we support entrepreneurship through initiatives like the 3D Incubator, a unique environment for innovative startups, providing resources and mentoring to facilitate their growth and consolidation.

With this combination of activities, we position ourselves as a key catalyst in the innovation ecosystem, effectively connecting scientific knowledge with the needs of the market and society.
