University and business
finally truly united
The university-business connection represents one of UTAMED's differentiators. This institution actively works to promote degrees clearly connected with the requirements of the labour market, not only in terms of content, but also in terms of the training of skills demanded by the labour market. UTAMED's training offer involves ensuring that, in the development of the degrees, in their planning and methodological proposal, qualified voices from the business sector are actively listened to and accommodated.
UTAMED actively promotes the development of transfer projects based on the knowledge generated by research staff. This guarantees, in addition to the professional growth of the teaching staff, the impact on society of the research carried out at this University.

Research Results
Transfer Office
The Research Results Transfer Office is a key part of the UTAMED economic and social impact proposal.
Among the general objectives by which the UTAMED RRTO will be governed, it is worth mentioning the following:
- Encourage the establishment of contracts and collaborations between universities and companies, which improve the quality of the degrees offered.
- Generate a two-way knowledge flow between companies and universities. Promote the development of R&D projects.
- Disseminate the results of the research carried out and their transfer to society, seeking an effective impact.
- Seek sources of public funding for collaboration between university research groups and other entities.
- Promote entrepreneurship based on the results of the knowledge generated at the University.
Entrepreneurship
Centre
UTAMED's headquarters are located in the Andalusia Technology Park in Málaga, the main technological hub in southern Europe. The UTAMED entrepreneurship centre is surrounded by cutting-edge technology companies.
Objectives of the entrepreneurship centre:
- Connect the research generated in UTAMED with the market
- Support projects promoted by the UTAMED faculty
- Involve students in entrepreneurship projects
- Generate university – company connections
- Support for external projects based on knowledge
We developed our transfer project with the aim of contributing to digitalisation and boosting the competitiveness of the economy, seeking to respond to the great challenges of our society.
Business
Chairs
The Business Chairs at UTAMED are the mechanism through which the training proposal of this institution is permanently connected with the business sector. This seeks to guarantee the continuous updating of the degrees offered and an effective connection with the skills and knowledge that are really required by the labour market.
Through the promotion of the university – company connection, it becomes possible to offer degrees that help students to grow in their professional life.
Each UTAMED Business Chair is linked to a reference company in its sector, which acts as an element of connection between the training proposal and the requirements of the labour market.
