We love what we do.
It’s our passion.

The Hub helps companies following three main steps

01 

First contact

we meet companies, providers and experts during events or workshops and they ask for a support or further details about our skilled services

02

Interviews and plans

we carry out a “company screening” (digital assessment included) and then we define together the strategies and the main changes to be adopted, in cooperation with the experts needed for the specific case

03

“On air” transformation

we start to implement the changes through tailored actions in cooperation with actors of our eco-systems in order to achieve the best performances

  • develop and upscale digital transformation projects.

 

Ecipa conducted a needs analysis in order to define the business plan of the DIH and the services to be delivered in line with the DIH mission as outlined by the Industry 4.0 National Plan. Further to that, it was decided to focus in particular on IoT, cloud computing and 3D printing.

  • Demonstration activities to approach digital technologies practically  (e.g. prototyping);
  • Training for SMEs willing to approach digital transformation;

In the Data field, Ecipa Hub has decided to cooperate with two partners, taking into consideration their strategic position and their competences in the provision of targeted services:

ConsultArea S.R.L.

ConsultArea S.R.L. is an IT service company with a specific focus on SMEs. Conscious of the growing demand for outsourcing, in 2008 it started building its proprietary 120m2 data center, through which it provides storage, processing and data transmission services to its customers. Some of the most important IT companies in the area have decided to rely on the data center, which guarantees optimal characteristics in terms of air conditioning, management of the electricity supply and security. Over the years, ConsultArea’s mission has therefore evolved from the supply of goods and services to the integrated management of customers' IT resources, providing the entire IT structure (thanks to its IT infrastructure and to its own Telecom network that connects customers’ infrastructures). It is now able to offer a wide range of services, including: technological and financial leasing of the company's IT systems; scheduled and on-demand maintenance of systems with customized contracts; supply of project data center with proprietary infrastructure; design and construction of data transmission systems according to current regulations.
