non-profit organization recognized by the Generalitat of Catalonia, that offers specialized care to adults with intellectual disabilities since 1987. During these 30 years, the Foundation has carried out many projects in order to provide innovative, low cost practical solutions, which will provide a clear benefit to both people with disabilities, their families and the professionals that support them. Today the IRD inherits these solutions with the challenge of updating and continue working to bring innovation to the dependency sector from within the sector.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_font_size=”35px” header_3_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#ff4037″ header_3_font_size=”28px” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-15px||||false|false” animation_style=”zoom” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n A short but successful journey<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_font_size=”35px” header_3_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#ff4037″ header_3_font_size=”28px” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-15px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Created in 2015, in its short history the IRD has signed alliances with the main players in the disability sector, with leading robotics companies, as well as publishing articles in international scientific journals, presenting studies at several conferences leading the creation of European H2020 consortiums and has reached agreements with different European universities and research centers. eliciting praise for the project among experts and sages in the dependency and technology sector.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_font_size=”35px” header_3_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#ff4037″ header_3_font_size=”28px” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-15px||||false|false” animation_style=”zoom” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Networking and institutional collaboration<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_font_size=”35px” header_3_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#ff4037″ header_3_font_size=”28px” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-15px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n With the aim of taking advantage of the synergies between different entities, growing in knowledge and spreading the benefits of the developments created and promoted by the IRD, it has sought the collaboration and knowledge of those entities with which the sum of efforts multiplies the result.
