RECIBIMOS LA VISITA DE MANUEL JOSÉ GONZALEZ ANDRADE, DIPUTADO DEL ÁREA DE TRANSFORMACIÓN DIGITAL Y TURISMO, Y MIEMBROS DE LA EMPRESA PHI4TECH

El pasado jueves 06/08/2020 recibimos la visita en el centro FIWARE Space de Manuel José Gonzalez Andrade, Diputado del Área de Transformación Digital y Turismo, y Ricardo Cabezas Martín, Vicepresidente Primero de la Diputación de Badajoz. El motivo de la visita fue conocer el estado actual del proyecto “Badajoz Es Más”, estudiar las soluciones de gestión inteligente ya implantadas a lo largo y ancho de la provincia y visualizar los primeros Cuadros de Mando ya implementados. Soluciones como la Gestión de Playas Inteligentes implantadas en las playas de agua dulce de los municipios de Orellana y Cheles, el Control Inteligente de Aforo implantado en el Museo de Bellas Artes de Badajoz o la instalación de toda una red de sensores de Calidad Medioambiental por toda la provincia gracias a la Plataforma RESPIRA solo fueron algunas de las soluciones que se mostraron y analizaron, así como los Cuadros de Mando que el personal de Promedio dispone para la gestión inteligente de los servicios de Recogida de Residuos o la Gestión del Ciclo del Agua o los diversos Cuadros de Mando que se están desarrollando para la gestión interna de la propia Diputación de Badajoz.

También se hizo hincapié en los servicios que prestamos a empresas y emprendedores como los diferentes talleres de formación, el Programa de Mentorización, servicios de asesoría y consultoría FIWARE, la posibilidad de obtener la certificación FIWARE para sus productos y servicios, etc.

De cara a los siguientes pasos a llevar a cabo, Manuel José tiene claro que el proyecto se debe dar a conocer más si cabe a toda la ciudadanía y a los municipios de la provincia para seguir implementando soluciones inteligentes que puedan dar respuesta a las necesidades de nuestros vecinos y que permitan seguir generando empleo y riqueza en la provincia.

Por otro lado, también tuvimos la visita de Luis Benito Galiardo, Santiago Antelo Muñiz y Camilo Merino González, miembros de la empresa Phi4tech. Nos hablaron de los trabajos que se van a llevar a cabo en la región en referencia a la fábrica de baterías de litio que se va a construir en Badajoz, en la Plataforma Logística del Suroeste Europeo, y su interés en conocer el proyecto llevado a cabo por la Diputación de Badajoz y estudiar cómo colaborar para poder implementar soluciones de gestión inteligente aplicada a la industria (Industria 4.0) dentro de su nuevo proyecto. La jornada finalizó probando las funcionalidades de varias de las maquetas y pilotos del centro y, dado que se establecerán en Badajoz capital, prometieron volver a visitarnos y profundizar más en las posibilidades de colaboración ya mencionadas.
