Tecnova as a Technology Center concerned with society, ensures the transfer of knowledge and technology. It is one of the priority axes of the center, to transfer the technology of the Almerian agricultural model through the implementation of a series of measures adapting to the agricultural and climatic conditions of the neighboring country.

In this sense, Tecnova intends to strengthen relations between both countries, having the opportunity to work and contribute knowledge and value as benchmarks in technology transfer, innovation and training in agricultural technology.
