INSPIRE is promoted in the context of RESTART Spoke 2, coordinated by the Politecnico di Bari. The project is implemented by a collaboration between Giffoni Innovation Hub s.r.l., Fabbrica Italiana dell’Innovazione s.c.a.r.l. and SPICI s.r.l., and saw the launch of a call for ideas aimed at selecting five entrepreneurial projects with sustainable solutions in line with RESTART’s objectives.

Selected startups will be supported through entrepreneurial training services, mentorship, inspirational and matchmaking events, such as Benchmark Day, Demo Day, and Open Innovation sessions.

During the “From Innovative Research to Business Creation” event, not only will the details of the project and the selected startups be presented, but there will also be a panel discussion on the technological aspects covered by the program.
