algoWatt offers management and control systems that integrate devices, software, networks, and services with a clear sector focus on smart cities and enterprises, digital energy and utilities, and green mobility.
Investment pattern and funding
The GeTUP project is worth about EUR 2 million, and it received funding of about EUR 1 million from POR FESR 2014-2020 – Axis 1 – Action 1.2.4 – Poles of Research and Innovation of the Liguria Region.
