ACCELERATOR
The first accelerator that meets all the priorities of the European Digital Compass.
L'ACCELERATORE
This is a vertical accelerator centred around mobility. Smart Roads, which means Smart Cities, Urban Air Mobility, Industry 4.0, Environmental Sustainability: these are the areas where the competitive capacity of territories will be tested in the coming decades, and which will be the turning point towards a more sustainable and equitable growth. For this reason, ICO Valley has decided to create a dedicated space for smart mobility.
The strategic focus of 2H Tech is guided by ESG principles. It looks for seed and pre-seed start-ups that can develop innovative technologies and processes, adopting the principles of Behavioural Design in the innovation process.
MISSION
Technology and behaviours at the service of people.
2H Tech aims at connecting the technological excellence of start-ups and SMEs with the best academic and industrial expertise and with the capital needed to develop an entirely new generation of smart products and services for people and their well-being, which interact with users in a new way and positively support behaviours.
VISION
The approach
Human Centred
The ICO Valley Accelerator adopts a behavioural approach to develop new products and services starting from people’s needs. The aim is to improve the quality of life and put people back at the centre.
GOALS
ESG investment principles guide the actions of the Accelerator, with the goal of selecting companies with the right characteristics in terms of sustainability and impact. The behavioural approach is then used to strengthen their ability to develop competitive products and services which can support their global growth.
