At the Tormes+ Technological Innovation Space, we develop immersive technologies: robotics, virtual reality, 3D printing, and "digital twins" applied to medicine and logistics.

Logistics
The Salamanca Intermodal Railway Platform has the capacity to accommodate trains up to 750 meters in length, manage containerized goods, and handle the transfer and storage of cereals and fertilizers. Its excellent geographic location allows for increased railway freight flows from Portuguese ports, such as Leixões or Aveiro, connected to Central Europe.
The Salamanca Logistics Activity Zone offers extensive and modern infrastructure, as well as a variety of services to companies, including customs clearance, an agro-food unit, specialized workshops, a gas station, and an electric charging station, among others.
