Commitment to young talent

 

Apuesta por el talento joven

 

A commitment to the development and training of young talent in the territories where they are present. This is Teknia’s strategy to continue attracting talent and establishing itself as a leading company in the career development of its teams.

As part of this commitment, the company actively collaborates with third sector organisations and entities to promote the professional growth and employability of future employees joining the automotive industry.

Competent and quality vocational training: Teknia joins the Alliance for Dual Vocational Training.

In 2023, the company joined the Alliance for Dual Vocational Training platform, a network of more than 1,500 companies, centres and institutions aimed at promoting the development of quality Dual Vocational Training in Spain.

The Alliance for Dual Vocational Training was launched in 2015 by the Bertelsmann Foundation, the Princess of Girona Foundation, CEOE and the Spanish Chamber of Commerce.

Boosting industrial innovation in the startup ecosystem.

Another year Teknia took part in BIND 4.0, an open innovation platform, a benchmark in the acceleration of Industry 4.0 solutions. The initiative, led by the Basque Government and the SPRI Group, has the main objective of promoting innovation in the industrial sector.

Teknia joined in its eighth edition as a business partner. The programme includes a total of 70 collaborating companies.

Promotion of development areas under STEM disciplines.

Teknia also collaborates with the Industria Erronka programme, an initiative that works to promote professional growth in the industrial sector among future generations. Organised by the Biscayan Federation of Metal Companies (FVEM). The project includes factory visits and tours, presentations in educational spaces and participation in Industrial Day, a day that brings together companies and educational centres to teach students about the sector and its activities.

During the 2023-2024 academic year, a visit to the Teknia Elorrio plant will take place for the first time, in addition to other visits to the Teknia Bilbao plant, which have already been organised in previous years.

These initiatives are part of other projects promoted by Teknia, such as, for example, the collaboration with two Formula Student teams, an engineering competition aimed at students from different universities.
