About us
Televés
Televés was founded in 1958 to distribute radio and television signals in buildings and homes, and soon extended its activity to niche markets such as signal transmission and measurement. In recent years, Televés has been completing its evolution to become a facilitator of value-added services through communication infrastructures, strategically in the areas of social health, security or energy efficiency, developing technologies that place the company in an optimal position to access highly competitive sectors such as aeronautics, automotive or smart cities.
Televés currently employs more than 450 people and delivers its solutions and products to more than 100 countries on five continents. It has more than 200 industrial property registrations, including 75 international invention patents, which reflects the important role that the development of proprietary technologies plays in its business model.

University of Santiago de Compostela
The group of Environmental Studies Applied to Natural and Cultural Heritage (GEMAP-
USC) of the University of Santiago de Compostela was established in the early 1990s and since then has been actively working on the conservation of monumental heritage in Galicia, mainly built in granite rock. The microbiology of cultural heritage in stone, subaerial biofilms (SABs), bioreceptivity and the development of innovative environmental technologies aimed at managing, assessing and mitigating natural and human impacts on heritage in stone in the current context of global change are among its main objectives of study in recent years. GEMAP-USC focuses its lines of action on the Green Pact and the Circular Economy.
The group has stable collaborations with different international research groups from the universities of Harvard (USA), Oxford (UK), Milan (Italy) and Campeche (Mexico), as well as national research groups from the other two Galician universities (Vigo and A Coruña) and the Universitat Politècnica de València, among others.
Entities co-financing the project
The Ministry of Science and Innovation, the City Council of Santiago de Compostela, the Xunta de Galicia and the Galician Innovation Agency (Axencia Galega de Innovación, Gain) are collaborating in this project.
