Enerbrain, that works on energy efficiency, and Medics, that realized a high-fidelity 3D reproduction service (HA3DTM) for human body parts for delicate surgeries, are the two ex-aequo winners of the “Start-up of the Year” prize, assigned by I3P to the start-ups that have reached some important results during their incubation program. The prize has been awarded during the annual event “Start-ups’ Party” which ha salso been the occasion to celebrate the first twenty years of activity of the Incubator, this year winner of the Best Public Incubator in the world, according to UBI Global World Rankings of Business Incubators and Accelerators 2019 – 2020.

The Start-ups of the Year 2019

Enerbrain

Entered in I3P in 2016, Enerbrain has developed energy saving solutions for big non-residential buildings. Enerbrain works on energy efficiency: it has patented a dynamic regulation system of HVAC plants (heating, cooling and ventilation) that allows a better comfort, reducing energy consumption, billing costs and CO2 emissions. Eenrbrain system adapts to any type of HVAC plant and the installation doesn’t require modifications to the plant, but it simplifies its maintenance and gives it a longer life. The company has immediately captured market interest, collecting prizes and awards. Last year, Enerbrain won the second edition of B-Heroes, the docu-serie on Sky Uno that talks about innovation and start-ups world in Italy, and it has closed a financing round of 2 millions Euros, funds that will be used to promote the internationalization of Enerbrain nd the development of new patents for energy efficiency: in particular, the capital increase has been signed by a group of investors composed by Controlli, Iren, GELLIFY, and Boost Heroes. Lastly, Eenrbrain has won the «Gaetano Marzotto 2019» prize of Rome, event supporting start-ups and innovative SMEs, winning 300 kEur “for the ability of generating positive spillovers for the region and the environment”.


Medics

Born in 2016 inside I3P, Medics realized a high-fidelity 3D reproduction service (HA3DTM) of body parts for delicate surgeris. In 72 hours Medics can transfer data of the normal biodimensional diagnostic (CT scan, CT angio, MRI) in three-dimensional virtual and physical interactive models. Recognized as custom-made medical devices by the Health Ministry, Medics’ devices are interactive and allow a state-of-the-art pre-surgery planning: the surgeon can simulate his intervention with a better visual and spatial perception, while the patient can better understand his pathology and the type of surgery he will go through. In 2019, the start-up closed a campaign rasing 830 kEur on Mamacrowd, the Italian equity crowdfunding campaign managed by SiamoSoci and Consob authorized.


Prizes of I3P start-ups in 2019

In 2019 many awards have been given to I3P start-ups. Among the most relevant: Omnidermal Biomedics received the Leonardo Start-up Prize, assigned by the Leonardo Committee in collaboration with MISE and ICE; Ermes Cyber Security won the Premio Nazionale per l'Innovazione "Premio dei Premi" 2018. Moreover, the start-up ClearBox, that recently entered the incubation program of I3P and that propose solutions of explainable Artificial Intelligence, won the important Premio Nazionale per l’Innovazione in the ICT area.

In the twentieth year of the Incubator, the start-ups supported by I3P have collected in total 14,3 millions Euros of seed and early stage investments, reaching 100 millions Euros of post-money aggregated value.
