HOW INNOVATION BEGINS IN OUR R&D LABORATORY

WE CREATE THE MOST ADVANCED INNOVATIONS ON AI SINCE

2016

Innovating without investing in research is simply unthinkable. In Trento, Spindox Labs is the Spindox branch entirely dedicated to R&D. This is not a randomly chosen location: the province of Trento is largely recognised as the Italian Silicon Valley for research. With the investment of 2% of the GDP in the R&D sector, it was already nominated a Knowledge and Innovation Community by the EIT back in 2008. Our research centre is also a stone’s throw away from the university and the Bruno Kessler Foundation, a cutting-edge research centre with more than 600 employees, 350 of which are researchers. Also close by are several other important research centres.
Clearly, then, the air we breathe at Spindox Labs is that of a fresh and curious innovation. Our exceptional team is composed by energetic, unusual and inspired members and we implement the most disparate technologies: AI, IoT, Digital Twin and Image & Text Recognition, to name just a few. Driven by our curiosity, we follow and participate in technological progress with enthusiasm and we dedicate our souls and bodies to satisfying our clients and partners.

Our mission

technological scouting and research projects

The province of Trento is the cradle of Italian technology. In 2016, we chose Trento to open Spindox Labs: we wanted to get started in the best possible conditions. Starting from a young managing board and from a dynamic team of researchers and innovators, we developed our activities around two areas: technological scouting and research projects.

Before innovating, we explore the innovation panorama, looking around to find ideas with potential. In a continuously evolving environment, we have understood that the only way to grow in a smart and adaptable fashion is to keep up with the times. Thus, we are able to see, foresee and invent cutting-edge solutions.

At the same time, we put our efforts in promoting collaborations, both with Italian and European players in the innovation sector. For instance, we collaborate with the Bruno Kessler Foundation, a partnership which has produced stunning results in implementing IoT technologies. Finally, Spindox also has another research center, aHead Research ETS, a no profit that deals with research applied to industrial processes, with a focus on mathematical models and artificial intelligence for decision intelligence and advanced analytics, discovery of new products and extreme innovation.

After several years of activity, we now feel like nothing can stop us. From developing a Digital Twin for predictive maintenance, to the Text & Image recognition technologies, from the connected car, to the smart supermarket, our passion and inspiration just keep growing, project after project.

All this, thanks to our fundamental guiding principle: taking care of our clients’ and partners’ projects as if they were our own dreams.

TEXT & IMAGE RECOGNITION

We develop tailor-made algorithms with cutting-edge Deep Learning and Convolutional Neural Network techniques, enabling our Artificial Intelligence to interpret the world similarly to humans.

CONNECTED CAR

In our branch in Maranello, we work alongside the best automotive producers in order to research and implement technologies for our Connected Car.

SMART RETAIL

Thanks to EU-funded projects, we guide a consortium of global partners to create the most advanced supermarket of the future.

WEB CRAWLER

Through Deep Learning and Machine Learning algorithms, our Bot Crawlers can handle and categorise unlimited amounts of data according to Data Science models that are tailored to our customers’ needs.

DIGITAL TWIN & 3D MODELING

Thanks to laser scans we are able to create models of the territory, on which we build Digital Twins equipped with softwares for an automated Object and Anomaly Detection.

CHAT BOT

We educate Artificial Intelligence so that we can create NLP Bots with the best Deep Learning technologies for Face-Recognition and instruments of Text-To-Speech and Speech-To-Text.

aHEAD RESERCH ETS

mathematical models for optimisation, data analysis based on machine learning e simulation systems

Spindox has a robust R&D model, likely unique in Italy. Apart from Spindox Labs, another pole dedicated to innovation is the association aHead Research ETS, which generates technological innovation for the whole Group, also thanks to strong national and European relationships with universities, research centres and start-ups.

aHead Research ETS deals with applied research to industrial processes, the discovery of new products and extreme innovation, focusing on:

Mathematical models for optimisation;
Artificial Intelligence in support to data analysis based on automated learning techniques (machine learning);
Simulation systems.

aHead Research ETS integrates the function “Research Centres & Universities”, which operates for the whole Group through activities that are finalised to the participation to research and innovation programs financed by the European Commission (Horizon Europe, for instance) or by the Italian Public Administration.

GO!GREEN

Sustainability coming from within

Sustainability is at home, here at Spindox. For a long time, we have been working hard to reduce the toll that our existence as a corporate reality takes on the environment. From water consumption to paper and plastic waste, we know that everything counts and that it is always possible to do better. For instance, we have adopted smart-working as a way to do good to both the environment and ourselves. Not only have we reduced the consumption related to the use of our infrastructures, but we have also introduced a way of working that adapts better to one’s own private life, making our employees happier and more enthusiastic.

Another example of the several ways in which a sustainable behaviour comes natural to us is our GO!GREEN campaign, with which we promote sustainability internally, among our people. Because one thing is clears, for us Spindoxians: sustainability does not concern big corporate projects alone, but rather needs to start from the individual people that make up our wonderful team.
From 2019, we have been collaborating with Treedom for the creation of a Spindox forest that will reduce our impact on the environment. Since then, we’ve planted 200 trees already, and we plan to reach 500 by the end of 2023.
For us it is important to create conversation and exchange ideas on sustainability in general. For this reason, we have dedicated the Green Stories section of our main website to good sustainable example coming from Italian and international startups. Our intention is that of raising awareness in the field we operate in, so that better practices will lead to a technological advancement of which we will all be able to benefit.
Think Orange, Act Green.
