This past Tuesday, December 20th 2022, UNVI has attended the III Galician Innovation and Design Awards, being the winner in the “Design – Company” category and finalist in the “Innovation – Large Company” category. They are awards organized by the Galician Innovation Agency (GAIN) and the Xunta de Galicia (Regional Government), both represented by Mr Francisco Conde, First Vice President and Minister of Industry and Innovation in Galicia, and Mrs Patricia Argerey, GAIN’s Directrice.
During the event it was shown the great talent in the fields of innovation and design that Galicia generates from within and that it exports, both at the professional level who have succeed abroad as well as the companies’ exports
The award was collected by the UNVI team, represented by the Director of Engineering, Eva Legido, the Engineering Director Deputy, Miguel Outeiriño, the Product Manager, Andrés Caride, and the Commercial Director, Carlos Rivo.
In the speech we recall our firm commitment to design with a concept of a modular bus range, reflecting the identity of our company. We understand design as a duty of adaptability to the population, the ecosystem and the need for a new mobility model.
We mention all the support of the Pérez Rumbao Group to which we belong, and that this 2022 we celebrate the Centenary, firmly supporting UNVI as a generator of innovation, design and development of buses. This was clearly backed by the former Group Pérez Rumbao’s presidents Mr. Emilio Pérez Nieto and Mr. José Ramón Pérez Nieto.
Finally, we remember the great contribution of our colleague Iago Álvarez, who suddenly left us this year, and who contributed greatly to the design of this family of products for which we have been awarded, as well as the electric bus project.
Year: 2022

Real Madrid celebrates its 35th La Liga title in an UNVI Urbis DD Open-Top Bus parade in the streets of Madrid
According to official figures, about 60,000 Real Madrid supporters gathered around the Goddess Cibeles fountain to celebrate their 35th League title with the 2021/2022 team.
After the celebrations on the pitch, at the door of the stadium an UNVI Urbis DD Open Top bus awaited and took the players and staff in its traditional tour along the Castellana and Recoletos, greeting and toasting with its people the success achieved.
The journey took almost an hour. The bus went down the Castellana surrounded by fans, before returning to Cibeles where the team took the traditional lap of honor. The champions traveled slowly but safely, and the cup presided over the bus perfectly attached to a platform.
It is already common for champions of different sports, cities and countries to celebrate their victories in UNVI Open-Top Double-Decker buses, which fills us with pride.
