The University-Enterprise Foundation of Valencia, institution promoted by the Social Committee (Consejo Social) since 1987, has had as main objective to strengthen the relations between the University of Valencia and its social and economic surroundings.

With that goal in mind, the Foundation supports the development of joint activities in those areas which facilitate the exchange of knowledge and, as consequence, motivate economic development and progress.

ADEIT is located in the heart of Valencia’s historic quarter and is surrounded by landmark buildings including Santa Catalina’s Church, the Regional Government Palace, the Plaza Redonda Square, the Central Market, the Lonja de la Seda Silk Exchange (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and the Cathedral.
