Nestart arose as a spin-off from Bordoni Bonfiglio srl, a structural metalwork company that forms and laser cuts metal components for various sectors. Each day, Bordoni's production generates waste sheet metal offcuts. Nestart was established to treat these leftovers not as waste but as a potential for transformation into prestige items.

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.

Provides design services and electronic systems analysis for mission-critical applications, such as electromedical equipment, transport systems, automatic vehicles, industrial vehicles and energy systems.

Computes Group is specialized in the development and marketing of CAD/CAM/ERP software solutions for sheet metal processing, with a suite of solutions verticalized for each production stage. This is supported by a professional technical assistance service and expert training to assist customers during all production stages.

Mainly aimed at companies in the metal industry who intend to reduce the time and cost of component processing by exploiting the flexibility of latest generation laser systems.

Hipert SRL is a spin-off from the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy. It was initiated in 2020 by Prof. Marko Bertogna and emerged from the HiPeRT laboratory, where research groups were seeking to exploit the performance/power of parallel processing platforms in a predictable manner, and in application contexts in which temporal constraints are critical.

3D4MEC Srl is the first entirely Italian company in terms of capital and know-how that produces and markets systems for metal additive manufacturing, specialized in the processing of specific alloys. 3D4STEEL is used for processing steel, and 3D4BRASS is the first 3D printer in the world capable of processing brass.

MAPO (Most Advanced Process Optimisation) engineers and markets highly innovative and highly technological software products and related services, associated to the dematerialisation of paper documents. MAPO has its roots in national and European R&D projects in the Department of Information Engineering of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. The company is therefore very willing to collaborate fully on industrial innovation projects that require the rapid development of prototypes or the engineering of existing prototypes, related to their skills.

Pearfid uses innovative technology to produce RFID devices.

AlmaPlasma is a company that aims to design, manufacture and market advanced technological solutions in the field of atmospheric pressure thermal and non-thermal plasmas, developed by the Industrial Applications of Plasma (IAP) group at the University of Bologna.
