The Innovation Factory
Our technological development ecosystem
The Innovation Factory is created for the conception, development, and implementation of advanced industrial solutions.
We connect people and technologies—clients, collaborators, and solutions—within an ecosystem designed to create, showcase, and demonstrate our vision of industrial transformation.
This space serves as a hub for experimentation and validation, where ideas become tangible realities through the use of digital tools, cutting-edge engineering, and agile methodologies. Here, we promote multidisciplinary collaboration to accelerate the transition from theory to practice, enhancing our clients’ efficiency, sustainability, and competitiveness in an ever-changing environment.
R&D
Technology development based on disruptive engineering
Since 2009, CADE has been carrying out research, development, and innovation (R&D&I) activities focused on disruptive new technologies and industrial applications related to renewable energy and clean-tech industries.
Pilot Plants
Development, manufacturing, and supply of experimental equipment and pilot plants for R&D&I.
We specialize in the development of customized solutions for scaling and testing industrial processes, offering advanced services in process design and simulation, as well as in the construction and operation of pilot plants and experimental platforms.
Technology
Driving industrial transformation through technology
As the technological core of our organization, The Innovation Factory drives the development of proprietary solutions, combining engineering, knowledge, and future-oriented vision.
Here, we develop and validate technologies in areas such as industrial automation, collaborative robotics, digital simulation, industrial data analysis, intelligent control systems, and modular energy solutions.
This space functions as a living environment for applied innovation, where each technology can be tested, refined, and integrated into real projects to maximize its impact on industrial transformation.
