Stendhapp

Stendhapp is a female-led, innovative startup (SIAVS), created with the clear aim of increasing the awareness of cultural venues through technology. The app, also called Stendhapp, is available on all major app stores and contains over 70,800 cultural places and events throughout Italy. It uses digital storytelling techniques to support those in charge of territorial promotion and typical cultural and food and wine venues in destination marketing projects aimed specifically at cultural tourists. In 2023, it won the call4 testing ‘Future City’ of CTE Next Torino for the development of a prototype that offers users customised cultural routes on a geolocalised basis and content in virtual and augmented reality. This is made possible by the combined potential of 5G and AI algorithms. The Museo Diffuso della Resistenza in Turin is a prime example of how Stendhapp is being used. Six historical reconstructions have been created for places of interest around the city, which can be accessed via the Stendhapp app and QR code. In 2024, Stendhapp won the European call for tenders Trialsnet with a project in AR for Turin UNESCO Creative City for Design.
