GLOBAL EQUITY & CORPORATE CONSULTING SL

Their core work

Global Equity & Corporate Consulting is a Barcelona-based SME that provides consulting and technical services for advanced manufacturing processes, with a focus on integrating digital technologies into production environments. Their project portfolio shows hands-on involvement in pilot production lines for nanomaterials, lightweight metal alloys, and bio-based materials. They appear to bridge the gap between R&D-stage manufacturing innovations and industrial-scale deployment, contributing expertise in process digitalization, prototyping, and production upscaling.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

Global Equity's early H2020 work (2019) centered on electronics-oriented manufacturing — printed and embedded electronics, conductive nano-inks, and rapid prototyping for digital pilot lines. By 2021, their focus shifted noticeably toward sustainable materials (biomaterials, bio-sources, eco-design, recycling) and AI-driven manufacturing. This evolution suggests a consultancy adapting from electronics-focused production support toward greener, smarter manufacturing — following broader EU funding priorities.

Moving toward the intersection of sustainability and Industry 4.0, positioning for projects that combine bio-based materials with AI-driven production optimization.

How they like to work

Exclusively a participant — never a coordinator across four funded projects, indicating they serve as a specialist contributor rather than a project leader. With 91 unique partners across 22 countries, they operate in large Innovation Action consortia (4 out of 5 project entries are IAs), suggesting comfort in complex multi-partner environments. Their broad but non-repeating partner network points to versatility rather than deep bilateral relationships.

Extensive network of 91 unique partners spanning 22 countries, built entirely through large Innovation Action consortia. Their reach is decidedly pan-European, with no obvious geographic concentration beyond their Spanish base.

What sets them apart

As a private consulting SME in Barcelona, they occupy a niche at the intersection of manufacturing digitalization and materials innovation — a combination more typically found in research institutes. Their consistent role across diverse material domains (nano-inks, lightweight metals, biomaterials) suggests they bring transferable process and consulting expertise rather than deep domain science. For consortium builders, they offer a flexible Spanish SME partner with demonstrated ability to contribute across multiple manufacturing verticals.

Highlights from their portfolio

• TEAMING.AI
  Largest single funding (EUR 183,750) and signals their strategic move into AI-enabled manufacturing, their most forward-looking topic.
• INN-PRESSME
  Represents their pivot toward sustainable bio-based materials and circular economy themes (eco-design, recycling, reuse), broadening their profile beyond electronics.
• LEE-BED
  Their entry point into H2020, combining nanomaterials with digital pilot production lines — the project that best defines their core electronics-manufacturing identity.
