AIC Fosters Innovation Through Global Collaboration in the Auto Industry
(MENAFN) In a laboratory, the BYD electric vehicle is disassembled and spread out on the floor, its parts arranged as if it had undergone an autopsy, showcasing the cutting-edge technology within the car.
"This is reverse engineering taken to its limits," said Daniel, a technician at the Automotive Intelligence Center (AIC) located in Zamudio, near Bilbao in northern Spain’s Bizcay province.
AIC is a prime example of how research, innovation, and market insight are fostering international collaborations for mutual growth.
The public-private initiative aims to assist partners in advancing next-generation automotive technologies. AIC provides services that blend research, industrial development, and business creation, supported by the Bizcay Provincial Council, local city halls, and other local and international organizations.
In recent years, AIC has developed strong ties with Chinese companies, including automakers BYD, SAIC Motor, BAIC Group, and Chery Motors, as well as suppliers like Hasco Group, Donghua, and Shac, and organizations like SIAM and EV100. They’ve also worked closely with energy firms like Gotion and battery producer Hithium.
"We help to combine agendas helping Chinese companies, while companies from here (Spain and Europe) also work with Chinese customers. They have all come here looking to find a common interest," explained Raquel Pinan, the Internationalization Manager at AIC to a news agency.
