Fostering Environmental Sustainability Through Deep-Tech Innovation_By Students
23/09/2024 - 11/01/2025
Background:
Environmental sustainability, resource management, and emissions reduction are increasingly important.
Responsible environmental interaction is crucial for ongoing production and planetary preservation for future generations.
Therefore, deep-tech solutions are vital for addressing the complex challenges of the ecological transition by enabling efficient natural resource management.
The Politecnico di Torino welcomes the growing interest, both from companies and from the student community, in ways of adapting to what environmental and social changes have now made mandatory: the ecological transition.
To this end it promotes the creation of deep-tech startups focused on environmental sustainability.
Challenge:
Teams will be able to develop cutting-edge projects focused on advanced technologies for sustainability by choosing one of five key areas to work on (energy tech, sustainable manufacturing, circular economy, smart mobility, water management).
The challenge’s objective is to propose new technologies at the service of the ecological transition that can transform into deep-tech start-ups. Projects will be evaluated based on the following criteria:
- Innovation and creativity
- Technical feasibility
- Environmental impact and sustainability
- Potential for large-scale implementation
