The Rector of the Universitat Jaume I, Eva Alcón, and the President of the Ceramic Industries Research Association (AICE), Joaquín Font de Mora, have received the Merit for Innovation awarded to the Institute of Ceramic Technology (ITC) by the Provincial Council on the Province Day, in a ceremony held at the Paranimf of the UJI.

Alcón thanked the ITC for the recognition and stressed that it is a prize for a "collective and shared effort".  He also stressed that innovation has been and continues to be what the ITC has stood for since it was founded more than 50 years ago. "The avant-garde vision of its founder, Professor Agustín Escardino, made it possible to design this then pioneering model of collaboration between the university and the business sector to promote knowledge transfer and innovation as the basis for business competitiveness, and to do so in an environment of scientific excellence such as the University," he said.
