Social R&D&I
Visits to the Talgo Factory
During the visits, attendees are actively engaged by being introduced to the details of the train manufacturing process, the development of Talgo’s latest proprietary technological advances, and innovation in the design and manufacture of trains that are more accessible for people with disabilities.
Likewise, it is explained that in order to achieve the success of being the mode of transport most committed to accessibility, it is essential to involve end users and the organizations that safeguard their interests, since they are the ones who best understand what they need, the barriers that exist, and how to overcome them.
Technological Adaptability
Emphasis is also placed on the new technologies used in Talgo trains, enabling the vehicle to adapt to the needs and specific characteristics of each project.
Target Audience
The visits are aimed at the academic community, researchers, and other organizations and institutions that are interested in learning a bit more about what makes Talgo technology so special.
