Kadans joins APTE to accelerate innovation in Spain
Kadans Science Partner (“Kadans”) has become an affiliate member of the Spanish Association of Science and Technology Parks (APTE). The membership was formalised during the APTE assembly at the Foro Transfiere 2025, held in Málaga. This partnership reaffirms Kadans’ commitment to the development of innovation in Spain and throughout Europe.
With an established presence in six European countries— the Netherlands, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Belgium, and Spain—Kadans brings its extensive expertise in developing and managing technology clusters to APTE. At Kadans, we share APTE’s vision for the need for innovation in technological processes, growth of knowledge-intensive companies, and the preservation of talent in Europe. By connecting APTE’s parks and companies with our European network of campuses, centres, and businesses, and leveraging our experience in managing three R&D buildings in Spain, we continue to foster environments that drive innovation and entrepreneurship. As the European market leader, we understand the key role of science and technology parks in technology transfer and economic growth.
APTE, as a non-profit organisation, brings together and promotes the development of scientific and technical parks throughout Spain, fostering innovation and growth. This aligns perfectly with our goals at Kadans, where we aim to accelerate technological innovation through collaboration between research and knowledge institutions, established companies, and research centres.
We would like to thank Sole Díaz, Felipe Romera, and all the members of APTE for their warm welcome and support. We are convinced that this collaboration will create new opportunities for innovation in Spain and throughout Europe.
