Development of innovative start-ups

The project supports the creation of new enterprises by promoting investments related to research results and the consolidation of start-ups that are based on one or more innovative solutions with high technological value to be developed, produced, and sold on the market, which meet demand requirements such as to make the project scalable also on international markets. In fact, the project intends to foster the development of initiatives along the entire value chain, from 'idea generation' to 'acceleration' to 'scale-up'.

This need stems from the awareness of the need to overcome the difficulty still experienced in Trentino in transforming research results into innovations capable of reaching businesses and the market. Investing in technology transfer in the area is therefore a crucial element for reducing the gap between research and the market and for fostering innovation in the area's enterprises.

The aim of the project is to increase the level of innovation and competitiveness of the production fabric, stimulating investments to develop innovative projects, products and services with a high market impact, thanks to the introduction of new technologies and processes developed in collaboration with the world of research.

The project is co-financed 40% by the European Union - European Regional Development Fund, 42% by the Italian State - National Revolving Fund and the remaining 18% by the Autonomous Province of Trento.
