Gaining Momentum

Fybra is a legitimate Italian IoT startup (founded 2020) specializing in indoor air quality (IAQ). External validation confirms a team of ~30, revenue of ~€705k (2023), and a patent for their adaptive ventilation algorithm. They have successfully deployed in schools across Italy and Germany (Hamburg pilot). However, the project submission itself is of very low quality, containing false claims ('most people have used my product', 'audience reach: everyone') and confused metrics ('marketcap' in revenue field). Despite the poor submission, the underlying business is solid, fitting the 'Small but promising' calibration tier.
