The UMH Knowledge Transfer Service encourages its research groups to take part in the following event:

📅 Date: 12 November
📍 Venue: Feria Valencia (as part of ECO-CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS)
👥 Organiser: QUIMACOVA | Collaborating organisations: UV, UPV, UJI, UMH, UA, RUVID

This event offers an excellent opportunity to connect with companies in the chemical sector, present research proposals with real-world application potential and establish new R&D&I collaborations.

Who is behind the event?

The event is organised by QUIMACOVA, the Chemical Association of the Valencian Community, which brings together more than 200 companies from the chemical sector and related industries. Its aim is to promote innovation, sustainability and competitiveness across Valencian industry. One of its strategic priorities is to foster university–business collaboration, which is key to accelerating knowledge transfer.

Purpose of the event

The event aims to build synergies between academia and business by presenting ideas for R&D&I projects developed at universities in the Valencian Community.

Attending companies will be able to request individual meetings with research groups whose proposals are of interest to them, thereby encouraging the development of tangible collaborations.

Why is the event being held as part of ECO-CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS?

The event is part of the ECO-CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS trade fair organised by QUIMACOVA for strategic reasons:

• It coincides with Chemistry Day in Spain (15 November), increasing visibility.

• It brings together companies actively interested in new technological solutions.

• It addresses priority areas such as sustainability, circularity, energy efficiency and new materials, which are closely aligned with university research.

• It allows researchers to present their proposals in a high-impact setting, where they can gain much greater visibility among businesses.

How can you take part?

Once the proposals have been received, QUIMACOVA will share them with its member companies to assess their interest. A maximum of 12 projects will also be selected for presentation at the event in a 7-minute pitch.
