UPAEP ENTERPRISES:

It is a bridge between UPAEP and businesses aiming to create strategic partnerships for the development of projects regarding technology innovation, business consulting, knowledge transfer, applied research, and business incubation. UPAEP Enterprises has broad experience with national and international companies of different sizes providing services and supporting entrepreneurs during the development of their business project.

UPAEP Enterprises is composed of three business units: CESAT, UNINCUBE, and Consultores Empresas UPAEP.

 

 

CESAT:

The High Technology Services Center, known as CESAT, is UPAEP's forefront of technology regarding relationships and coordination with different industries. It supports technological innovation and carries out product quality assessments to ensure they meet national and international standards according to the global market. Successfully, during 2017 we provided services to more than 140 companies from 19 states of the Mexican Republic, primarily from the automotive, construction, and textile industry sectors, among others.

UPAEP Enterprises grew 76%, breaking an industry record for metrology and standardization with more than 1,200 technical reports delivered.

Following a successful operation, CESAT increased its installed capacity by acquiring two new forced convection furnaces and machining equipment to fulfill the industry's demands exclusively. Through CONACYT's research incentives program, we have developed 14 innovation projects for companies that invest in technology, research, new products, processes, or services development. As a result of these projects, two patent applications were submitted. The design center was supplied with a finite element simulation solution, rapid prototyping equipment, and a 3D scanner.

 

UNINCUBE:

A strategic business unit, aiming to promote and motivate the entrepreneur spirit, by strengthening and incentivizing the creation of new competitive, sustainable, profitable and socially relevant companies, allowing entrepreneurs to expand and enhance their performance, to implement their vision and to acknowledge the scope of operations to become agents of change and social impact. The incubation process is carried out based on a model that include three stages:

  1. Pre - incubation
  2. Incubation
  3. Post – incubation

 

During the year 2017, thirty-one entrepreneurs entered the pre-incubation stage, the most significant number registered since the beginning of the operations. Thus, the National Institute of the Entrepreneur acknowledged UNINCUBE as a high impact incubation program (Incubadora de Alto Impacto) at a national scale. For the sixth time, our entrepreneurs were elected by Grupo Asesor Empresarial del Municipio de Puebla to be supported by businessmen and mentors.
