Innovation services

From research to the market. Many services to generate innovation

Bridging Research and Industry: we drive innovation projects to boost markets, grow the production system and create value for the territory.

Digital transformation

We help companies to build customised and targeted digitalisation pathways, offering support at every stage—from design to development and implementation—with the goal of making them more efficient and enhancing their competitiveness. 

Patent and Market information

At Area Science Park, we believe in the power of ideas. That’s why we provide information and guidance services on intellectual property, promote initiatives focused on the information value of patents and research data and help companies to define the technological and competitive scenario of their sectors of interest.

Deep tech startup generation

We support the creation and growth of deep tech startups in the fields of life sciences, materials science, advanced digital technologies and green energy supply chains. We achieve this by connecting research with businesses, leveraging our research and technological infrastructure.
