Spin-offs

https://www.uniupo.it/en/third-mission/technology-transfer/spin-offs

University spin-offs or start-ups are private entities that promote the use, from an entrepreneurial perspective, of the results of scientific research to develop innovative products or services. They are, essentially, newly established companies whose primary corporate purpose is the use of research results. The matter is regulated by Ministerial Decree no. 168 of 10 August 2011.

In 2018, the current Regulation for the approval and establishment of joint-stock companies or "spin-offs" was issued.

Since 2004, 28 companies awarded the "Spin-off" label have been established. Below is the list of active spin-off companies.
