PuroSole Sistemi Solari a radiazione diretta

Faire: Rome

Maker: Digitarch Farm srl

Heliostats are devices that reflect the sun's rays onto a fixed target. They use motorized reflecting surfaces that automatically follow the trajectory of the Sun. Today they are used only in large plants for the production of electricity with reflecting surfaces of hundreds of square meters and millionaire investments (such as the Archimede thermodynamic plant by Carlo Rubbia). But we think that a heliostat can also be used for other purposes, such as: lighting environments where the sun does not reach, cooking food, water pasteurization, etc. and without the need to use any type of energy other than solar radiation. We have therefore studied and created a simple, cheap and easy to use heliostat. The study and creation of the first prototypes required several years and involved considerable economic resources. A medium-sized coffee roasting plant (30 kg/hour) was also built. The plant, the Hw/Sw projects, the patents, the prototypes, were brought by the partners supplied to the new Start Up Digitarch Farm which will develop the production and commercial process using the already registered PuroSole brand.

Scaling Up To assess the market potential of our solution, we used the model that allows us to estimate the total demand, the reachable segment and the obtainable share for our product or service. In addition, we analyzed the following variables that influence our ability to penetrate the market and generate value: • Market need: the degree of need or desire that customers have for our solution and its differentiation from existing alternatives we have discovered that there is no company on the market that could be evaluated today as a true competitor. • Product-market fit: the level of adherence between the features and benefits of our solution and the needs and expectations of customers. • N° of active POCs: the number of proof of concept (Prof of Concept) that we have started with potential customers to demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of our solution was quite reduced as the product is easily adaptable to any type of product. • N° of converted POCs: the number of proof of concept that have turned into contracts or actual orders from customers exceeds 90% of the value of proposals. • N° of active customers: we decided to give the opportunity to a small number of customers who were allowed to use our solution regularly and are satisfied with it, especially because we selected some particular products brought to market by small emerging companies as seen from presentation we sent. • N° of potential active customers: The number of potential customers who have expressed interest in our solution and are in contact with our sales group are unquantifiable since the product is an integral part of Bado’s Voucher 4.0

LIGNOPACK – Bioplastic from food waste for food packaging

Faire: Rome

Maker: Università degli Studi della Tuscia

Every year in the field of food packaging synthetic additives are used for the development of plastic packaging, whose deleterious impact they have on the marine ecosystem and on human health is now known.
