With Startups, SMEs, Intrapreneurs, talents and universities we will develop breakthrough solutions for the energy industry and beyond.
Through Alperia’s know-how, resources and network every Startup Factory challenger will have the possibility to grow his/her business.
The use of renewable energy sources and new systems for more efficient energy are increasing more and more.
That’s why, together, we can play a key, leading role in this development by encouraging and enabling innovation in various fields.
Alperia Startup Factory is open to innovative ideas and startups providing solutions in pre-defined macro thematic areas. Together with “Libera Università di Bolzano”, we will carefully screen the best ones for developing a collaboration project with our people (PoC).
In past editions, the call has collected hundreds of subscriptions from Italian and foreign startups, giving life to a work path aimed at providing the know-how for the development of the best ideas and meeting the innovators in a common space of cooperation.

The Innovation Camp will be held remotely the 19th and the 20th of January 2022. However, we are constantly re-evaluating the situation. In case of any changes, we will contact you in advance with all the essential information.
Yes, in case on-site events will be planned, reasonable travel expenses (transportation to and from Bolzano, accommodation for non-residents) will be reimbursed following Alperia’s travel expenses rules (train, flight economy, taxi/rental car/own car if necessary).
Workshop input, documentation, and pitches in English please.
Mentioned events are planned to be held remotely, however we are constantly re-evaluating the situation so if travel will be allowed you might be asked to participate on-site. Depending on the team, we also plan 2-3 on-site meetings during the Acceleration (Proof-of-Concept) phase. If traveling won’t be possible due COVID-19, we will facilitate workshops and events remotely.
No. We are equally interested in Startups working on technologies, solutions or services that could be used for the energy industry but have not yet provided an application in this field.
An Intrapreneur is a person who acts like an entrepreneur while working in a (large) organization. Each Alperia employee can become an Intrapreneur within the Startup Factory, by applying for the program with an idea he/she wants to develop together with other colleagues. Often time and focus lack for such ideas to be developed within a company due to busy-ness and b.a.u. activities. The Startup Factory offers then a great chance to do this within a structured path and through the collaboration of the whole company.
Regarding the process and the possibilities of getting selected for the acceleration phase, there aren’t any. All applicants are getting evaluated and selected using the same parameters (evaluation criteria, timeline, meeting dates, …).
