DAZE TECHNOLOGY

Daze Technology is engaged in the development of charging systems for electric vehicles. Its flagship product is DazePlug, an automatic conductive charging system for electric cars, which eliminates the critical issues related to home charging. The solution, thanks to the use of robotics, is completely automated and does not require the use of cables or charging columns.

GREEN INDEPENDENCE

Green Independence wants to democratize access to renewable energy with the possibility of sustainable in-loco production directly from the sun and water, thus reversing global warming. To do this, GI, with its proprietary technology, the New Artificial Leaf, imitates nature by transforming water and the sun into green hydrogen. NAL integrates photovoltaic and electrochemical technology in order to enable a decentralized/off-grid production of Green Hydrogen and other solar-fuels, while recycling CO2 emissions by transforming them into valuable products.

LAKENERGY  

Lakenergy provides e-mobility services that, through customized IT solutions, include different last mile sharing vehicles (e-boats, e-bikes, e-scooters), in an historical and environmental context, the lakes of the North of Italy, characterize by a strong interest for local, sustainable and experiential tourism.

LANDFILL4.0 (by EXE - ENGINEERING FOR ENVIRONMENT)

EXE Engineering has developed Landfill4.0, a technology to make the management of biogas produced by landfills automated and centralized, in order to increase its capture, reduce its emission into the atmosphere and make it usable for the production of electricity.

NEXT (BY GETPLUS)

NEXT is a modular smart vehicle behaving as a shared car or as a taxi but also as a bus, last mile delivery van, or a truck for long distances, or an interchange hub for passengers/goods without outdoor transshipment. It is based on swarms of modular electric vehicles. Each one can join and detach with others on standard city roads. When joined, they create an open, bus-like area allowing passengers to stand and walk from one module to another. Modularity allows "enroute-transfer", that optimizes system capacity and cuts cost and traffic.

NUVAP

Nuvap is a pioneer in the management of indoor air quality and promotes the Health of People and Healthiness of Built Environment. Thanks to Nuvap's cloud platform, it is possible to detect, monitor and communicate in a simple and comprehensive manner, the presence of both chemical and physical pollutants (up to 26 factors) in workplaces, schools, hospitality and health care facilities or other private and public buildings where people sped regularly several hours per day.
