Carchain
Innovative startup founded in September 2020 based in Trieste. Compared to the traditional method, it uses dynamic QR codes to advertise the car; in this way, the information can be customized anytime. Carchain addresses the market through two channels: Internet ads and in person, with the insertion of a QR code on the car. Since the focus is on the classic car market, there is a desire to introduce blockchain technology to safeguard the main interests of car collectors, such as the origin of the car, history, pedigree, originality, mileage, certificates, etc.. The mission is to enrich the experience and profitability of stakeholders by providing them with the best solutions to save and share vehicle details and trade intelligently. The vision is to become the most popular platform in the world to store and share vehicle data and improve the liquidity of the classic car market..

Besides knowing their health conditions, family members can also coordinate with each other and with the caregivers who may care for their relatives. Hassisto is supplied with a smartwatch and a smart box conveying the data collected on a server, in respect of privacy, where they can also be accessed by health care personnel.
Leviant
LexPi is the blended-reality platform for the presentation of design and architecture projects. It is often difficult to share all the information necessary to fully understand the project such as materials, finishes and position of the furniture, and it is often difficult to get it through. LexPi cloud platform offers the possibility to upload and customize the project as desired, paying particular attention to the use of “markers”, thus deciding what to change within the space. Once the process is completed, it will be exported directly to the mixed reality viewer to be worn by the client. This will allow the customer to enjoy a new experience within the project. The peculiarity of this solution for architects and designers is to explore the different furnishing options in real time, thanks to an easy hand gesture.
Movers
Public transport services enable convenient and sustainable travel, but they have fixed routes and timetables. For this reason many users rely on mobility sharing services for the last mile, i.e. to reach the streetcar stop or the destination more quickly after using public transport. The idea is to create a platform for selling integrated subscriptions between the various mobility services. These subscriptions integrate several otherwise independent mobility services into a single package, thus including public transport and sharing services. The idea is therefore to simplify the relationship between user and mobility services. Furthermore, the subscription offers are not fixed yet available according to the customer’s needs. Moreover, through the use of an algorithm, the platform is able to offer the customer a personalized subscription that best suits his/her habits..
Stip

Human interaction is the real value of customer service, for this reason, unlike a normal Chatbot, instead of eliminating the operator, it works to maximize the efficiency of the operator. Stip has developed 3 AI models applying to the entire customer service process and allowing to automate all non-value-added activities, thus letting the operator focus only on ticket resolution. Stip’s AI focuses on digital channels (Social, Email, Website, WhatsApp, SMS, etc.).
