Organizational structure

The General Assembly is composed of all PTV partners and its main function is to examine and approve social and economic management.

The Steering Committee is the main management and administration body of the WTP, whose main function is to ensure compliance with the guidelines laid down in the General Assembly, as well as the definition and coordination of the Working Groups. The Government Council of the WTP includes 16 entities representing the Spanish wine industry:

The Technical Commission is formed by a selected experts’ group with recognised expertise in different scientific-technical areas. This Commission is the most active core of reflection and debate inside the PTV, which main objective is to identify the needs of wine sector, as far as Innovation is concerned, boost and materialize them in strategic R+D+i projects.

The Commission is structured in six areas of interest: Viticulture, Process, Product, Sustainability and Climate Change, Health and Wine Economy. Each area is managed by a double (business and scientific) coordination, under the direction ofthe President and Vice-President of this Commission, who act as a direct link with the Steering Committee.

At an operational level, the Technical Commission meets once a year to deal with aspects related to the R+D+i strategy (and the Strategic Innovation Agenda; SIA) of the Spanish wine sector. In addition, the coordinators convene annually Working Groups, to which all PTV members are invited, in order to identify and launch specific R+D+i projects.

A nivel organizativo, la Comisión Técnica se reúne una vez al año para abordar aspectos relacionados con la estrategia de I+D+i del sector del vino español. Además, los coordinadores de cada área convocan anualmente a los socios de la PTV, a las reuniones de Grupos de Trabajo de cada una de las áreas para la identificación y lanzamiento de proyectos de I+D+i concretos.
