Support Italian entrepreneurs unleash growth potential
We believe that we can help unleash this
talent, energy and growth potential, by
helping Italian entrepreneurs to start up
their businesses, to launch their inventions at
an International level and to
foster innovation in Italy.
We scout the best ideas, invite the selected
entrepreneurs for an acceleration period in
our offices in Torino and work with them on
their products and business plan and help
them get funding from Italian and
International ventures.
We believe young people have huge potential for innovation and change. We see this everyday, all over the world.
We believe in Italian Talent, because we see it recognized, at every level, around the world.
We know the talent we see flourish abroad is just a small part of the potential, we know there are powered forces still
dormant in Italy. The power of ideas, the stamina of the youth, the sensibility and the genius that made Italy a great
country.
