Review on H-FARM by Douglas Cachazo
H-FARM: 4 months of acceleration at hfarm campus
Located in Italy, specifically in Venice, another good accelerator incubator company that unfortunately is paralyzed by the global problem of the pandemic, since all its programming is not only face to face, but takes place in what I would call a university city of entrepreneurship, almost 50 hectares of forests and parks that create a good environment for the activity in harmony with nature, almost 50 thousand square meters of construction made up of buildings to house thousands of people who will reside for the duration of the accelerator program, classrooms, meeting rooms and workshops, sports fields and auditoriums, a whole gigantic complex exclusively for entrepreneurs.
In fact, the campus itself is a sample of this, the entire electrical network operates with solar energy, electric cars and motorcycles for movement in the campus city, the services are controlled from your smartphone, access to networks, and control of a network of Samsung TVs available throughout the campus.
There is no single program, each program changes and evolves according to the area to which it applies. It is like a university where the curriculum is constantly being updated.
The company has an important network of strategic partners that support the campus, highlighting the name of its main partner AUDI, the giant German car manufacturer and other important companies.
As I mentioned, unfortunately the hfarm project and its entire campus is at a standstill, the facilities unoccupied due to the pandemic disease, waiting for the world to return to normal and the pandemic to subside,
Pros
- A whole university city at the service of entrepreneurs.
- Support from major companies, led by the giant AUDI.
- An entire European network of technological mentors
- Opening services for smart cities
- Form a whole digital culture that impacts societies
Cons
- Paralyzed by the global pandemic
