\ Creazione d'Impresa \ Five start-ups from Friuli Venezia Giulia to attend prestigious Dubai trade fair, North Star

Five start-ups from Friuli Venezia Giulia are getting ready to travel to Dubai for the North Star trade fair starting on 10 October.

The event represents a unique opportunity for innovative start-ups and SMEs to showcase their work and boost visibility, as well as to engage in international networking. Tech companies taking to this prestigious stage will be able to present their products and services, and connect with investors and buyers. Some 100,000+ visitors are expected to attend.
The five companies representing Friuli Venezia Giulia made successful bids in the “Call for High Innovative Sustainable Solutions in FVG Region” organised by UNIDO ITPO Italy and Friuli Venezia Giulia’s Regional Authorities, for which Area Science Park provided technical support.
In order to ensure they present themselves in the best light, they will need to capitalise on the exclusive coaching opportunity organised by Area Science Park’s Business Generation group on 12 and 13 September, at its Padriciano campus.

There will be a wide range of both theoretical and practical training sessions on offer with experts from Area Science Park: from defining a value proposition to managing legal relations, from putting together a pitch and video pitch training to how to interact with journalists, as well as sessions on managing public relations. Attendees will come away having learnt tips and tricks to attract the attention of media and investors and generate growth and business opportunities.
