Ferrovial at Pasion>ie
Innovation is a strategic tool to respond to the global challenges facing the infrastructure industry. Ferrovial has numerous in-house initiatives aimed to promote innovation; however, those processes must be enriched through an ecosystem that is open to alliances with entrepreneurs and start-ups.
In this context, Ferrovial’s participation in Pasion>ie allows it to look for innovative proposals in the Cities of the Future category whose goals align with our priority innovation areas: waste treatment, energy efficiency and smart cities.
