We unlock the value of data for impact-driven companies

A collaborative network of public and private organisations leveraging data for positive social and environmental impact across sectors.

To realize Impact Deal’s vision, the Data Club was established as a collaborative network of public and private organizations dedicated to leveraging their data for positive social and environmental impact across sectors.

Valuable datasets: members contribute not only Open Data, but also proprietary datasets that create real value for startups and impact-driven enterprises.

Exclusive collaboration: data collaborations are available in Program Phase 2, where enterprises co-create solutions with one or more Data Club members to unlock innovation and measurable impact.

Secure & compliant: all information is managed securely, anonymously, and in full compliance with GDPR and European data regulations, ensuring trust and responsible use.

Expanding network: the Data Club continues to grow and aims to evolve into a Data Space for Social Impact, fostering cross-sector collaboration, responsible data sharing, and collective action to maximize impact at scale.

Almawave

Almawave is an AI-based solution provider which enables the actionability of data from a broad range of sources, providing the most powerful combination of Location, Sentiment, and Market Intelligence datasets for any Point of Interest, brand, or territory worldwide. We use proprietary technology to process data drawn from non-traditional data sources.

Almawave has chosen to participate in the Data Club by making available:

  • POI Dataset: Data that measures specific aspects of the performance or digital positioning of a single Point of Interest (POI) present in a given geographic area. Each piece of information is geolocalised and traceable to a single POI detected in digital maps through specific geographic coordinates (lat/long). POIs are classified into 20 Industries and over 750 Categories of membership. For any further technical or methodology-related details, please refer to the following link: https://docs.datappeal.io/data-packs/poi-data-packs
  • Location dataset: Data that measures specific aspects of performance over time and/or the digital positioning of a specific geographic area (navigable through micro-zones, according to different levels of detail), based on the set of data detected on the Points of Interest (POI), combined with other sources. Each piece of information is geolocalised, thanks to digital maps, through specific geographic coordinates (lat/long). Regarding the territorial resolution: the reference standard is given by Bing Tile of level 13 (i.e. areas of 14 kmq in extension); in some cases, it is possible to obtain a greater granularity, up to tiles of level 18 (0.016 kmq).

Città di Torino
Città di Torino

Città di Torino

The City of Turin has always been engaged in activities to support urban innovation, thanks to Torino City Lab, the City’s open-air innovation laboratory, and several projects financed with European and national funds. 

Among these, CTE NEXT, the House of Emerging Technologies in Turin, aims to create a widespread technology center on 5G and emerging technologies applied to four strategic sectors: Smart Mobility, Urban Air Mobility, Industry 4.0 and Innovative Urban Services. Moreover, ToMove project, funded by the Department of Digital Transformation, to create an open laboratory focused on the development of new scenarios of smart and sustainable urban mobility, which use innovative cooperative, connected and autonomous mobility solutions, integrated in the «Mobility as a Service» paradigm.

This, combined with the participation in several EU projects, allowed the City of Torino to attract testing activities, unite all the protagonists of the innovation in the city and create a real ecosystem for innovation which allowed the City to be awarded as European Capital of Innovation 2024-2025.

The City of Turin, therefore, adheres with interest to the Impact Deal Project, committing itself to guide businesses in the use of free data of AperTo as well as to support them in co-designing use cases of urban interest by favouring access (where possible) to other specific datasets, such as urban mobility flows also thanks to the support of CTE-NEXT and ToMove partner.
