Basque Culinary Center creates the world’s first gastronomic technology centre

18 April 2018

Basque Culinary Center is taking a huge leap with the creation of the world’s first technology centre specialised in gastronomy, BCC Innovation. The start-up of the centre shows the Basque Culinary Center's commitment to research and innovation, and with this, it aspires to become a global reference. The centre will be part of the Basque Network of Science, Technology and Innovation.

The creation of BCC Innovation reinforces the development of BCC and makes it a pioneering centre that integrates two innovation hubs: the Faculty of Gastronomic Sciences attached to Mondragon Unibertsitatea, and BCC Innovation, Gastronomic Technology Centre. The centre will provide answers to the challenges and needs of 21st-century gastronomy, in the fields of health, quality, sustainability and economy.

The creation of BCC Innovation will make it possible to create knowledge on the gastronomy sector and will meet several goals: transforming knowledge into wealth, promoting innovation in businesses and actively participating to support the creation of new businesses, guaranteeing the future of the sector.

BCC Innovation will be formed by a team of 25 people, including researchers from different fields, technicians and managers. In the year 2017 the R&D centre of Basque Culinary Center collaborated with more than 40 businesses and institutions, in association with renowned research centres at a state and international level, through public and private projects.
