Treball de Fi de Màster Universitari en Eficiència Energètica i Sostenibilitat (Pla de 2018). Codi: SJF019. Curs: 2021/2022 El objetivo es el estudio de la situación urbanística y edificatoria actual del barrio de Crémor con el fin de dar con unas líneas de actuación que permitan la regeneración urbana basada en decisiones sostenibles que le devuelvan el carácter social, económico y medioambiental que ha ido perdiendo, convirtiéndolo en un barrio vulnerable dentro de la trama urbana de la ciudad. Según el reciente Plan General de Castellón, aprobado en diciembre de 2021, esta área es una de las que se han definido como vulnerables dentro de la ciudad y, por tanto, sería conveniente priorizar potenciales intervenciones urbanísticas de mejora.

Treball Final de Màster Universitari en Prevenció de Riscos Laborals (Pla de 2013). Codi: SIS017. Curs acadèmic: 2021/2022 El Gobierno de España, ante la pandemia provocada por la COVID-19, decretó el estado de alarma a través del Real Decreto 463/2020. En este marco excepcional, la Junta de Gobierno Local del Ayuntamiento de Castelló de la Plana, como órgano superior de coordinación, en sesión extraordinaria y urgente, de 16 de marzo de 2020, aprobó el acuerdo sobre medidas organizativas y de ordenación del personal, en el que se establecían las condiciones para la continuidad de los servicios municipales, incluyendo la definición de los servicios con naturaleza esencial, con mención a aquellos que requerían la presencia física de empleados/as en las dependencias municipales. Los demás, es decir la práctica totalidad del personal municipal adscrito a servicios administrativos generales prestó sus funciones en modalidad de teletrabajo. En base a este acuerdo, se elaboró y publicó el Protocolo de Actuación para empleados/as del Ayuntamiento de Castelló de la Plana frente al SARSCov2, sometido a continua revisión, en el marco de las recomendaciones órdenes e instrucciones establecidas por las autoridades sanitarias. Sin embargo, el impacto sobre la actividad económica y sobre los grupos socialmente más vulnerables, a nivel mundial, de estas medidas del estado de alarma, llevaron a la determinación de reactivar la normalidad.

Treball Final de Grau en Administració d'Empreses. Codi: AE1049. Curs 2021/2022 Currently, the competitive environment that surrounds companies is in continuous change, which means that many of them try to manage these changes through innovation and new technologies, these two aspects being key for the present, but above all for the future of many sectors, among them is the Spanish ceramic sector. Given its importance worldwide, the industry tries to reinvent itself and continue to grow day after day to develop better products and services and be more competitive, complying with environmental standards. One of the subjects that has contributed the most to expanding students' knowledge about concepts that had not been studied in the Degree in Business Administration has been Análisis Industrial y Redes de Empresas (AE1043) at university. This subject focuses on the analysis of the different industries and the planning and competitive strategies of companies, especially SMEs. It also deals with economic models that we had not known in depth before. Related to these analyses, among other topics, the ceramic cluster was introduced and now carrying out this work on these points serves to finish understanding these aspects and expand them. One of the objectives of this report is to present the current situation of the ceramic industry, which we will use as support to explain the current and future challenges of the companies that are part of this sector. Another objective lies in the need to learn about technological innovation so that organisations can contribute to the environment, which is already a concern, although for the coming years it is also an opportunity. It is motivating to analyse all this, obviously introducing appropriate definitions to better understand what we are talking about, because the ceramic cluster is an attractive industry for the beginning of professional life. One reason that has prompted the completion of the final degree project on present and future challenges of Spanish ceramic companies is that the sector predominates in the province of Castellón de la Plana, where it is the most important ceramic cluster in Spain, of which we are to speak in this report. In addition, it is the most competitive cluster and one of the best in innovation in Europe. Therefore, it creates jobs for thousands of people, such as family and friends around us. On the other hand, specifying more the investigation, we will analyse the technological innovations of the Spanish ceramic cluster, because it is essential for the present and for the coming years the capacity of change and adaptation of the companies through innovations, thanks to these, the companies will be able to position themselves better in the market in the coming years. It is curious the way in which the members of the cluster fully exploit the available resources and their capacity for growth, thus avoiding being stagnant with respect to the competition and in terms of technological advances. The Report on Tiles in Spain (Alimarket, 2021) is relevant, where it is indicated that the eight main groups of the ceramic cluster collect close to 60% of the total tile sales in our country, which denotes that it is the most important at the national and one of the most outstanding in the world. This study analyses, as we have pointed out in previous paragraphs, the Spanish ceramic industry and, to a greater extent, the ceramic cluster located in the province of Castellón, providing objective data and verified information that allows us to know, from its theoretical and historical context, the current situation of the cluster, allowing us to highlight the present and future needs in terms of technological innovation. We will give importance to employees of the ceramic sector who know first-hand the current situation and the challenges of this industry. It is an ambitious challenge, among others, the arrival in the ceramic industry of concern for innovations in the environment, which we will deal with in depth, this being one of the fundamental axes of the report. The structure of the work consists of three parts. The first chapter will focus on explaining theoretical concepts, using the concepts of cluster and innovation as theoretical bases, from there information will be provided that allows us to understand the particularities of these concepts that will be fundamental throughout the report. The second chapter will deal with the ceramic cluster of the province of Castellón, we will approach from its beginnings, going through its products and services, elements, characteristics, up to the present. In the third chapter, we will present innovative challenges facing the cluster and the ceramic industry, focusing their development on environmental challenges. Finally, we will make the final conclusions and references.

Treball Final de Grau en Administració d'Empreses. Codi: AE1049. Curs 2021/2022 The aim of this project is to learn about the concept of innovation and cluster in a business. I have chosen Pamesa as the company to study, because it is the largest ceramic tile group in Europe. On the one hand, innovation is a very important topic, because almost all businesses invest in R+D activities. Here we will discuss both the theoretical concept of innovation and R+D in the ceramic tile cluster. In terms of the theoretical concept, it explains the various concepts of innovation and its different typologies. In the innovation of the ceramic tile cluster, it explains decisions that have had to be taken to be able to continue innovating in the sector. In Pamesa, many R+D activities are carried out, so we have focused on the three most important ones: marketing innovation, in which the marketing method is improved. Process innovation, which improves the production method, and product innovation, which improves the characteristics and performance of its products. On the other hand, the concept of cluster explains the historical evolution of ceramics tile in Castellón, as this area is the most important ceramic tile cluster in Spain. Also, the concept of industrial district is introduced, which is similar to the cluster, it is a specific territorial area of a community of people and industrial businesses. In addition, the concept of cluster is related to a type of innovation, particularly, with green innovation, since they are those ecological products that include technologies on the environment. Therefore, this innovation is related to the cluster, as it is a collection of ecological processes that makes this interaction a network in which both product companies and local institutions are involved. As for the ceramic tile cluster, today there are many types of clusters at the international level, such as Silicon Valley, Madrid Network and Hollywood. But at the national level, the most important ceramic tile cluster is in Castellón. For this reason, the main data of the Spanish ceramic sector are presented in this paper. Finally, as mentioned above, Pamesa is the leading European producer and, on the other hand, it accounts for 19% of the production of the Spanish ceramic tile sector. (Pamesa Industrial Group, 2022). The assignment of the work is as follows, the theoretical concepts of innovation and cluster appear in the theoretical framework. In the second section, the cluster and ceramic tile innovation, innovation and cluster in Spain are discussed. In the third section, the company Pamesa is explained, both the business group and its commercial brand Pamesa Ceramica. Finally, in the last section, innovation in Pamesa is described, specifically innovation in marketing, processes and products.
