Last week, we had the pleasure of attending the most important tech and innovation event in Italy, the Italian Tech Week. It was an intense 3 days full of opportunities to #network, #talk, and #learn from outstanding #professionals who are making valuable contributions to shape their respective #industries. 🚀💡 During the 3-day event, together with Zest Group and SocialFare | Centro per l'Innovazione Sociale, and sponsored by Qonto, OVHcloud, and Notion, we hosted an incredible evening in Social Fare's offices in the city centre of #Turin during the #Ecosystem #Meetup. 🌍✨ This side event brought together #investors, #corporate #leaders, and #founders aiming to create meaningful #connections. We would like to thank Laura Orestano CEO-SocialFare, CEO-General Manager of SocialFare | Centro per l'Innovazione Sociale, and Michele Novelli, Partner of Zest Group, who, together with our Operating Director Nico Valenti Gatto, opened up the networking night with their warm opening remarks🙏 "It is such a pleasure to host an event during #ITW with two other accelerators with which we exchange ideas, best practices and deal flow. It’s so encouraging to collaborate with representatives from three different entrepreneurial hubs which are continuously growing: Turin, Rome and Milan." Nico Valenti Gatto, #B4i’s Operating Director It was a pleasure to help kick off such a dynamic networking event and contribute to a growing innovation ecosystem. 🤝💼

🔥 Every day is unique and special, but the #kickoff days of our #Acceleration #Program are more special than ever. Yesterday marked the start of the journey for our #X #Batch, featuring 6 teams selected from over 300 #applicants. In the coming months, each team will work to reach the ideal #product #market #fit by better defining their product, completing their teams, connecting with industry experts and advisors, and ultimately, fundraising. We would like to thank the Rector of Università Bocconi, Francesco Billari, and Managing Director Riccardo Taranto for being part of this special moment, offering their greetings and valuable advice to the #founders of the new batch. Best of luck to all the teams: we can’t wait to see you grow and reach your full potential! 🚀

🗣️ "We decided to address the theme we found most urgent in the context of #sustainable #development, and we named it '#Power #Play: Technologies of the Transition.' We were thrilled to see how closely aligned our content was with last week's report by Mario Draghi, 'The Future of European Competitiveness,' which expressed the key priorities for the EU in three points: closing the #innovation #gap, finding a #joint #plan for #decarbonization, and #increasing #security while reducing dependencies. Each point was at the heart of our discussion. " Ludovico Dejak, Innovation and Sustainability Specialist at #B4i 🌱 This week, we had the pleasure of organizing an event that is very close to our hearts at the Rome Future Week, in collaboration with Forest Valley Institute, with participation from SDA Bocconi’s Sustainability Lab and IT's Climate - Italian Startups for Climate. 🌍"#Power #Play: Technologies of the Transition" was an opportunity to discuss, together with key players from #institutions and the #private #sector, the role that #innovative #solutions and the search for aligned, #common #strategies play—and will increasingly play—in revolutionizing the traditional #energy #sector. 🚀 The speeches and panel discussions touched on some of the most sensitive points of the debate, focusing on the concrete side of the proposals: exploring the current state of #energy #transitions, how to accelerate #frontier #technologies, and what is needed at the #ecosystem level—among #innovators, #corporates, and #policymakers—to scale these solutions. We would like to thank everyone who participated, our event partners like Forest Valley Institute, SDA Bocconi’s Sustainability Lab, IT's Climate - Italian Startups for Climate, MUSA scarl, and the guests who contributed: Ludovico Dejak, Paolo Meola, Andrea Biancardi, Federico Cuppoloni, Giovanna Pozzi, Davide Dotti, and Salvatore Petruzzi.

🔥 The last quarter is like the #grand #finale in the #startup world—it's when #founders and #investors have the chance to capitalize on #opportunities and make their mark. 🤝 On one hand, the first can refine their #strategies, secure #investments, and expand their #networks, while the latter have the opportunity to attend industry events and competitions to identify potential #game #changers poised to lead in the coming year. 🚀 To help you find the best #events for valuable networking and #competitions that offer opportunities and funding to grow your business, we’ve gathered all the key dates from now until the end of the year that you should mark on your #calendar—and, ideally, attend.
