SETE: 100 ideas to save the world, at Fiera del Levante, Bari
during
SETE by StartupItalia, in collaboration with Regione Puglia, Acquedotto Pugliese and UNIDO ITPO Italy
Sustainable water management is one of the most pressing global challenges: although water covers about 70% of the earth’s surface, only less than 3% of it is potentially drinkable and only a fraction of it is accessible to humans [*]. Italy is currently in third place in Europe in the ranking of countries that consume more water, preceded only by Greece and Ireland: how do you get rid of it? Innovation is also a factor.
SETE: 100 ideas to save the world at Accadueo is the culmination of a Call4ideas and Call4startup launched in autumn to collect the best business ideas capable of (r)innovating the water sector, water use and its saving. SETE will select 100 ideas - now featured in a special paper - but only the 10 most promising ones will be featured on the Accadueo stage. Startups, scale-ups, SMEs, research institutes, university spin-offs and other innovative entities will share their cutting-edge ideas to safeguard the entire water supply. Selected by a committee of experts, they are dedicated to water in one or more areas: domestic, energy, industrial/agricultural and technological/digital. On the stage of the final event will also be awarded the prestigious "Award #mareAsinistra" to the reality that best represents the objective of attracting and enhancing talent in Puglia.
SETE: 100 ideas to save the world is a StartupItalia project in collaboration with Regione Puglia, Acquedotto Pugliese (AQP) and the Italian Office for Technological Promotion and Investment of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO ITPO Italy), and is part of the cohesion policies and the strategy of #mareAsinistra aimed at the exploitation of talent in Puglia, through opportunities from the Regional Programme Puglia ERDF-FSE+ 2021-2027.
