The Organisation
GAIKER, member of Basque Research & Technology Alliance, BRTA, is a private and non profit organisation devoted to research and offering innovative technological solutions for corporations. Since our inception in 1985, we contribute to the technological development and competitiveness of businesses through learning and specialisation and ultimately transferring technologies related to our Areas of Knowledge -
Biotechnology and Sustainable Composites and Functional Polymers - to the members of our Foundation and our clients.
In addition to our main goal (the development of R&D Projects) we also provide Advanced Technological Services (Technological Consultancy and Advisory Services and Innovation Plans, among others), Lab Testing and Technological Dissemination Services.
GAIKER has an approximate staff of 103 researchers, technicians and other professionals and the most cutting-edge equipment to offer the innovative and high-quality solutions for our clients' technological needs. We have historically supported

Since 1997 our management follows the European EFQM Model. We take special care of this issue because we understand that excellent management policy results in the optimisation of our own resources while enabling us to offer our clients
better services, products and higher quality standards. Our long list of Accreditations and Certifications guarantees the quality of the work we carry out.
