Ecosystem

In line with our open innovation strategy, since 2010 we have been working with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) under a research and innovation agreement. The goal is to work together on research projects that seek to transform cities and develop the infrastructures of the future. Backed by over $5 million in funding, the projects focus on such areas as smart cities, water treatment and energy efficiency.

In parallel, Ferrovial works actively with other universities to drive innovation. They include Spanish universities such as Alcalá, Cantabria, Girona, Granada, Rey Juan Carlos and Valladolid, and universities in the UK such as Birmingham, Manchester and Newcastle. In the United States, as well as the projects with MIT, our innovation team is working with the University of Texas at Austin.
