The program will be held in a hybrid format, both online and at OGR Torino, within the network and hub for innovation and applied research, OGR Tech.

A key contribution in this regard comes from the Data Club, a group of corporate and public-private organizations ready to grant access to their data. Confirmed participants include&nbsp;<strong>Citt\u00e0 di Torino<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Banca Sella<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Windtre<\/strong>, while the 2024 edition will also feature&nbsp;<strong>Almawave<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Advaneo GmbH<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Cuebiq<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Open Data Hub<\/strong>&nbsp;(<strong>a platform provided by NOI Techpark<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional companies from the Piedmont region will be involved thanks to the valuable mediation of the\u00a0<strong>Digital Innovation Hub Piemonte<\/strong>\u00a0and the\u00a0<strong>Mesap Innovation Hub<\/strong>, both of which are new entrants among the stakeholders of Impact Deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Six months of data-driven acceleration<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the participating enterprises are identified, the program is structured in two phases. The&nbsp;<strong>first phase (January \u2013 March 2025)<\/strong>&nbsp;involves analyzing the needs of the accelerated businesses and matching them with members of the Data Club and investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the\u00a0<strong>second phase (April \u2013 June 2025)<\/strong>, the focus will be on finalizing funding opportunities and building strategic collaborations based on access to public and private datasets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Previous editions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The companies that participated in the first two editions of Impact Deal&nbsp;<strong>raised over 30 million euros in capital<\/strong>.
