Advanced Materials

Alexandria plans to market a fully antimicrobial bottle that can be opened into two parts, following a logic of high environmental sustainability through an extended product life cycle.

It protects health and consumer drinks by killing bacteria, microbes, spores, and algae acting constantly over its entire surface with an effect that persists over time without ever expiring.

It requires no electronic components in order to operate because the action is passive.

The requirements of recent European standards and a demand from consumers for eco-sustainable goods has increased pressure on plastic processors to reduce the percentage of oil-based materials in their products. In response to this Gazza aims to produce fully biodegradable and compostable biopolymers.

Gazza's biopolymers are derived from two natural ingredients: tapioca starch and glycerol.

Similla offer innovative digital solutions for the development of advanced materials in hi-tech applications.

Similla integrates virtual models, artificial intelligence, and big data in order to accelerate the design of materials and innovative processes for critical applications in sectors of significant technological impact like: advanced manufacturing, health (biomedical devices, biomaterials), energy (batteries and storage, solar power, etc.), the environment, and agri-food (sensors, etc.).

Respyra is a device purposely designed for eliminating viruses and bacteria from the air, while it is also effective for eliminating dust, odours, mould, fungi, and pollen.

Thanks to an innovative photocatalytic purification system it can decontaminate indoor air of all pathogenic agents and pollutants through an oxidization process at ambient temperature using the oxygen present in the air and with light produced by specific UV lamps.

Hospitality Re-sign is an innovative start-up founded for the qualitative regeneration of tourist services in sustainable terms.

Starting from an analysis of existing tourist facilities, those in disuse, and buildings potentially usable for tourism, Re-sign proposes registration on a three quality level hospitality portal.

The core concept is an ad hoc certified restyling in an integrated, innovative, and certified "network" system.

ZENIT's business idea of Smart Polycrystals is based on the production and sale of polycrystals for the solid state laser (SSL) machine market.

Existing SSL systems have high manufacturing costs and the machines are heavy and bulky. These laser beams are generated by a single-crystal that heats up locally during laser emission, causing the temporary deformation of the crystalline cell, degrading the quality of the beam and reducing its efficiency.

Vela e Legno is a company project designed to combine the opportunities offered by new technologies with the experience and skills passed down through the generations in wooden boat design.

Vela e Legno was founded in 2013 as a result of Andrea Foschini's passion for the sea, boats, and wood.

These 3 ingredients are combined into a project already well advanced and offering the following possibilities:

LUMO Startup Innovativa S.r.l. was founded in 2019 in Mirandola with the aim of providing adequate health services to people living in rural areas of developing countries, in order to guarantee good hygiene conditions for all.

Neurality has realized an SaaS for analysing images and video applying artificial intelligence techniques with the aim of extracting crucial information for the businesses in which they are used.

After successful applications in the medical world, the Neurality methods are expanding to other markets, including industry and agri-food.

Rippotai combines sensory elements like sight and hearing with a philosophy based on eco-design and the use of recyclable and recycled materials.

Rippotai's activity is thus oriented along two directions:
