Espaitec, Scientific and Technological Park of the Universitat Jaume I of Castelló, promotes the Technological Map of the Province of Castellón, whose main objectives are to map the innovative and technological companies of Castellón; to visualise the state of their technology, to detect recent lines of research or emerging technologies, to know the technological needs and opportunities for continuous improvement; to identify opportunities for collaboration between the business sector and the rest of the innovative ecosystem of the province; and to communicate the current offer and identified demand offered by each of the agents of the innovative ecosystem.

The Technology Map of the Province of Castellón has focused its methodology on the current situation of technology in the territory; the identification of the main indicators from the European Innovation Scoreboard 2019-2021 (European Union) and the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI); the design of a survey with questions related to innovation and technology; conducting surveys of companies; the mapping of the participating companies; the identification of opportunities for collaboration; and the communication of data through the project website ([www.mapatecnologico.uji.es](https://mapatecnologico.uji.es/)), whose functionality and presentation has been redesigned in this third phase to facilitate the visibility of the technological and innovative capabilities of companies in the Castellón area.

Thus, this initiative has been able to identify a total of 294 companies in the province with a strongly innovative and technology-based component whose distribution of the R&D component by sector is as follows: ICT (31.76%); Industrial Technologies (23.65%); and Energy and Environment (11.49%) aligned with the smart specialisation strategy of the Valencian Region (RIS3CV). It should be noted that in the Optics, Materials and Nanotechnology sector, the distribution of R&D is practically nil in the province, reaching only 1.35% of the companies surveyed, followed by Biotechnology and Health, with 4.05%. In terms of market positioning, 33% of the companies have a prominent position in the province, 33% have a defined positioning at national level and 50% of the companies have little presence both in the European Union and in the rest of the world.

With regard to the educational level of employees, the gap between male and female employees stands out, even taking into account that the recruitment of men is much higher than that of women. With regard to doctorates, 70% are men and 30% women; university graduates, 65% are men and 35% women; non-university graduates, 72% are men and 28% women; and R&D specialists, 71% are men and 29% women.

43% of the participating companies have their own R&D department, which means that they do not need to outsource this area. In terms of Intellectual and/or Industrial Property Protection, it should be noted that almost 74% of the companies exercise their intellectual property rights in terms of the corporate brand. Also, one in three participants protect their rights in terms of copyright, patents and industrial design.

In terms of computer literacy, 70% of the companies surveyed said that their employees have an advanced level of computer literacy, while 20% said that their level is intermediate.

According to the heat map that includes the participating companies, investment in R&D is mainly located in the geographical areas with the highest number of inhabitants and the most industrialised, these are: Castellón de la Plana, Vila-real, la Vall d'Uixó, and somewhat further behind Onda and Nules.  
  
The Technological Map of the Province of Castellón strengthens the commitment to contribute to increasing the capacity for growth and competitiveness of the provincial business fabric, especially in times of crisis where innovation must become a business constant.
