2. 3D printing. Ikasia has a 3D laboratory in which it develops hybrid materials with plastic, glass or ceramic components through a 3D additive manufacturing process patented by the entity.

3. 3D biotechnology. We are leading additive manufacturing systems in the field of biomedicine for the development of disease models and tissue regeneration. To do this, we create innovative 3D equipment that allows the creation of personalized and biodegradable models for each patient. Our goal is to contribute to improving the quality of life through the creation of effective personalized treatments without adverse effects on the patient.

RedTree Making Projects Coop.V. is a social cooperative, active in the fields of education, training and the design of educational materials. In its almost 10 years of experience, the entity has become a benchmark in the creation of innovative digital educational processes and methodologies in very diverse educational fields (secondary, primary, adults …), having created specific digital tools, methods and environments to favor inclusion and educational success of students with obstacles.

Redtree’s projects and areas of specialization are intersectoral, since they work mainly in 4 educational sectors: school education, vocational training, adult education, and training of young people through non-formal and informal education.
