Zaragoza City of Knowledge Foundation is an independent organization working as part of the Etopia Center for Art & Technology. Its main aims are to highlight advances in the knowledge society, bring scientific culture to the people, and help socially disadvantaged groups with technological integration.  Etopia Center for Art and Technology is a public space run by Zaragoza City Council as a venue for creative technologies, innovation, and digital culture, in order to face up to the challenges of the digital age.  

 

Etopia is located close to the express (AVE) train station and the Expo 2008 business and leisure park. It is the “new Zaragoza” area developed at the beginning of the millennium, which is surrounded by two of the most traditional and multicultural neighbourhoods (Delicias and Almozara). The building is on a corner of a large crossroads, linking the main ring roads, offering great visibility for the digital façade. Likewise, it hosts exhibition areas, an auditorium, labs, coworking spaces, workshop rooms, a cafeteria, and a hall of residence.  

 

The CeSAR Labs were installed at the Etopia Center of Art and Technology in 2016, thanks to an agreement between Zaragoza City Council and the University of Zaragoza. Therefore, all the lab spaces at Etopia are equipped with latest generation devices from the Institute of Biocomputation and Physics of Complex System (BIFI), through an EU FEDER program.  

 

Its main purpose is to develop scientific programs that bring scientific culture closer to the citizens of Zaragoza, and allow artists and creators to work on projects and collaborations.
