Xavier Verdaguer, founder of Innovalley INC, company based in Palo Alto and Barcelona, and Enrique Varela, president of FTS have signed a collaboration agreement to work together on the “Camino de los satellites” (Satellite Way).

FTS will provide its knowledge on people with functional diversity and elder people, and also on responsible and easy to use technology. This is what the foundation calls OM3.0: Open Minded Technology, ahead of its time (3.0), technology that is designed from the beginning to fit every user’s needs, instead of the usual proceedement of “adapting” what previously had been thought for just a group of people.

Innovaley Inc will provide its knowledge on engineering, innovation and the newest technologies to think of new OM3.0 products, not only for users with functional diversity, but also for new markets.

The first action implied on this agreement will be testing Innovalley’s smart apparel and shoes on the FTS project (together with AGESTIC and KARAKOL events) to walk the french path from Roncesvalles to Santiago de Compostela during this Holy year 2010.
