MATCHER - Data Driven Innovation

MATCHER – Data Driven Innovation is the matchmaking program promoted by the Emilia-Romagna Region (Italy) and the Enterprise Europe Network.

The program aims at scouting national and international Start-ups / Scale-ups to create business matches with 12 Corporates from the Emilia-Romagna area and to allow them to start pilots and collaborations for the resolution of their specific business needs.

The call for startups is now open and it concerns 3 main thematic clusters:

- Data collection and elaboration to support operators – Enhancing operator support through smart data extraction and processing, digitalized instructions, and real-time monitoring to ensure safety and efficiency
- Data analysis for strategic decisions – Data analysis to optimize strategic decisions, from tender analysis and personalized healthcare to operational insights and hr strategies
- Data use for machine automation and performance – Enhancing machine automation and performance using advanced data analysis for predictive maintenance, autonomous agriculture, and optimized battery performance

Applying as soon as possible is highly recommended: the longer the matchmaking period, the higher the possibility of getting to know the corporates and identifying potential collaboration opportunities and therefore maximize the chances of starting important partnerships.

MATCHER is organised by ART-ER, Attractiveness Research Territory.
