ABOUT US
OUR APPROACH IS BUILT ON THREE DRIVERS:
- STRATEGIC VISION
Providing direction, coherence, and long-term perspective. - APPLIED INNOVATION
Integrating advanced technologies, digital tools, and creative solutions to enhance project performance and visibility. - IMPACT-DRIVEN VALORISATION
Transforming research results into sustainable, measurable, and real-world outcomes.
PROJECTS DON’T FAIL. THEY STOP BEFORE IMPACT
Most projects do not fall short because of poor ideas or weak science. They fall short because strategy, management, communication, dissemination, exploitation, and impact creation are often treated as separate activities rather than parts of a single process.
Without integration, even excellent projects struggle to create visible, lasting, and measurable value.
That is where HELYRA makes the difference.
FOUNDERS
Tullia Di Corcia
She is Co-Founder and CEO of HELYRA, a molecular biologist with over ten years of experience in European research, scientific communication, and the valorization of research through impact-oriented strategies.
Throughout her professional experience, she has developed expertise in the strategic management of complex projects in the Life Sciences, biomedical, and MedTech sectors, adopting a multidisciplinary approach that integrates scientific expertise, project management, digital innovation, and communication. Her work is particularly focused on transforming ideas and research outcomes into concrete, sustainable initiatives with high societal value.
She has also consolidated expertise in European project design, scientific dissemination, stakeholder engagement, and impact and exploitation strategies, with particular attention to knowledge transfer processes and the valorization of research results.
Within HELYRA, she leads the company’s strategic vision and coordinates activities related to European projects, communication, and impact strategies, promoting an open, collaborative innovation model oriented toward creating value for communities, territories, and people.
Before founding HELYRA, the founder gained extensive experience in the management and valorization of European research and innovation projects, collaborating with universities, research centers, and international consortia within Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe. During her work, she supported scientific and administrative coordination of projects, consortium operational management, communication and dissemination activities, as well as exploitation strategies and the valorization of research results.
Main projects include:
CROSSBRAIN (EIC Pathfinder) – Development of an innovative platform for advanced neuromodulation based on nanomaterials, nanoelectronics, and miniaturized wireless systems for monitoring and modulating neuronal activity. Involvement in project management activities, consortium coordination support, communication, dissemination, and exploitation.
EXPERIENCE (Horizon 2020 FET Proactive) – Project focused on the development of the “Extended-Personal Reality” paradigm, integrating virtual reality, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence to create personalized immersive experiences with clinical and therapeutic applications. Involvement in project operational management, communication, dissemination, and exploitation activities.
BRAINSTORM (EIC Pathfinder) – Development of a nanoinvasive neuromodulation technology based on intelligent magnetic nanomaterials for the selective control of neuronal activity, with applications in preclinical models of neurological disorders. Involvement in project management activities, coordination support, and results valorization.
SUSNAMU (MSCA Staff Exchanges) – Project focused on the development of sustainable materials derived from waste biomass for applications in food packaging and agriculture. Involvement in project management, communication, dissemination, and exploitation activities.
The activities described above refer to the professional experience gained by the founder within research institutions and partner organizations of the respective projects and do not represent projects carried out by HELYRA.
Cesare Roseti
He is Co-Founder of HELYRA and is responsible for the company’s administrative and financial management, coordinating economic and operational activities, budget monitoring, document control, and compliance aspects related to project implementation.
With over fifteen years of experience within Italian public institutions, he has developed strong expertise in administrative process management, institutional relations, and the coordination of activities related to social policies and healthcare services. His experience has allowed him to build a deep understanding of public administration dynamics, decision-making processes, and the dialogue between public bodies, territories, and stakeholders.
He has also developed expertise in institutional communication and stakeholder engagement activities, with a particular focus on contexts related to social innovation, healthcare, and public policy.
He further contributes to the definition of dissemination, sustainability, and valorisation strategies for project results, strengthening HELYRA’s ability to effectively interact with institutions, public entities, territorial organizations, and policymakers. His approach integrates organizational skills, strategic vision, and attention to the impact of projects on communities and territories.
