The event is designed to offer participants a concrete opportunity for dialogue with strategic stakeholders of the RAISE up community, including investors, innovation hubs, accelerators, and incubators.

The event will begin at 2:30 PM with a welcome session, followed by an opening talk and a testimony from a guest speaker invited to share a relevant experience of bridging research and business.
From 3:30 PM, plenary presentation sessions will begin, each followed by a Q&A with the audience. The event will conclude with a networking aperitif, offering attendees the chance to continue the exchange in an informal yet collaborative atmosphere aimed at fostering new project synergies.
