COFFEETECH Genova: Cristina Battaglia presents the results of the RAISE Ecosystem

On Friday, May 30, 2025, the 246th edition of the weekly “Coffeetech” series took place at the Confindustria Genova headquarters.

The featured guest was Cristina Battaglia, Programme Manager of the RAISE Innovation Ecosystem, who – three years after the launch of the program – provided an update on the “Results and Outlook of the RAISE Ecosystem”.

During her presentation, Cristina Battaglia gave an overview of the main achievements and showcased a selection of technology demonstrators developed within the program’s four strategic areas:
– Urban technologies for inclusive engagement;
– Personal and remote healthcare;
– Environmental protection and care;
– Smart and sustainable ports.

Among the topics discussed were also the future perspectives for the ecosystem’s consolidation and expansion: “We are working together with all partners and HUB members on defining a strategic plan, which will outline the activity lines and priority programs for the future of the ecosystem. The contribution of Confindustria Genoa will be crucial in aligning objectives and tools to enhance RAISE’s results in service of the business system,” commented Cristina Battaglia, with an eye toward the technologies and skills considered most promising for regional competitiveness.

The event provided an important opportunity to reflect on the state of technological innovation in Liguria, with particular attention to the fields of robotics and artificial intelligence – areas where RAISE is making a significant contribution to the region’s economic and social development.
