iCube is an innovative European Programme designed and developed for researchers and innovators to boost the impacts of their scientific and technological achievements.

Through its youris.com public communication and distribution platform and the exploitation advisors iCons Srl we have built our expertise in the design and implementation of communication and exploitation strategies in public-funded research and European projects. iCube adopts a fully integrated communication and exploitation approach and a set of new indicators to measure impacts in terms of awareness, acceptance and uptake, which is highly appreciated in EU H2020 projects.

Over the past 20 years we have been supporting the communication and uptake of the achievements of more than 500 national and international initiatives in several scientific and technological domains and we have directly participated in more than 50 EU-funded projects, improving their communication and exploitation potential.
