iNEST Consortium and Cross-Cutting Activity 1: empowering innovation

The Call for Exploring Ideas is open: submit your innovative idea

Trieste, 15th December 2023

Turning innovative ideas into projects or activities that significantly benefit the innovation ecosystem is the primary goal of Cross-Cutting Activity 1 (CC1) within the iNEST Consortium. This initiative, funded by the European Union’s NextGenerationEU program together with the Italian Ministry of University and Research and the ItaliaDomani program, aims to swiftly enhance and extend the benefits of digital technologies to key specialization areas in Northeastern Italy. In this context, CC1 serves as a cornerstone for innovation and the convergence of research and entrepreneurship. 

The first phase of the CC1 program, the Pre-acceleration phase, aims to collect innovative ideas from doctoral students, researchers, and pre-seed start-ups. Ideas can be submitted by applying for the Spoke 9 Call for Exploring Ideas.

It is strongly recommended to contact the Valorisation and Innovation Office when interested in the application. The best ideas across all Spokes will be guided towards the preparation of a pitch and the top 20 will advance to the following phase, namely the Acceleration program, which will bring start-ups to market validation with a scalable business model. The program is free

The Call for Exploring Ideas is already open. Potential neo-entrepreneurs are encouraged to submit their innovative ideas by 15th February 2024
