Aeroporti di Roma’s “Call for Ideas” dedicated to innovation is underway and will lead to the launch of the first start-up incubator within an airport

Aeroporti di Roma is creating a strategy increasingly oriented towards the enhancement of Open Innovation through the launch of the first “Call for Ideas”, in partnership with Plug and Play Tech Center, the first global innovation platform that unites start-ups and companies ready to collaborate and innovate within their respective industries.

Start-ups from around the world have until 15 November to propose, in Italian or English, ideas and projects to redefine the use of airport infrastructure by passengers, especially pertinent in light of the radical changes which occurred during the pandemic.

The six start-ups chosen by ADR will have the opportunity to work on their projects directly from the Innovation Hub of Aeroporti di Roma, the first industrial incubator in Italy, which will be operational at Fiumicino Terminal 1 at the start of 2022. This will be an ecosystem of about six hundred square meters dedicated to creating new synergies.
