At GAIKER, we contribute to increasing the competitiveness of companies through our Technological Disseminationactivities. Its objective is to disseminate knowledge, relevant information, etc. that will help organisations in their technological decision-making.
At GAIKER , we understand these Dissemination activities as a dissemination process that ranges from the organisation of Conferences and Congresses, publication of Scientific Articles and Papers to other tools that are considered appropriate and always seeking to make it an open and accessible process for companies.
Along this line, we also develop Technology Watch activities, systematising the search for, processing, exploitation and protection of technological information in the sectors in which we work. The aim is to provide information that will give companies a competitive edge.
We also disseminate knowledge through specialised training, provided by our experts and aimed at coming up with solutions to specific business problems.
