Global Startup Ecosystem Report 2025 presented in Paris
Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center and Fondazione Compagnia di San Paolo have collaborated with Startup Genome to outline the profile of the Turin ecosystem, with continuously growing results
"Having a strategic partner such as Intesa Sanpaolo in the development of a startup is fundamental, both to have access to global and widespread networking, and as a long-term collaboration for the growth of the company".
"The excellent relationship we have established with Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center, has allowed us to develop a high-level cooperation, where we are often invited to participate in top-tier events. On average, at each of these occasions we’re able to close new sales, also because we target a cross-sector audience".
"Intesa Sanpaolo's help was substantial as it allowed us, from a bureaucratic point of view, to solve some issues that we would not have been able to solve otherwise. So Intesa will certainly be alongside us in the growth in the next states within the European Union where we will consolidate our business".
"After getting in touch with Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center, we participated in the Up2Stars acceleration path and in In Action ESG Climate, the initiative launched by the Life Companies of the Intesa Sanpaolo Assicurazioni Group, which guaranteed us the economic and financial resources to launch a sustainability project in 2025.".
"When we started our startup, we found crucial support from Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center and the Up2Stars acceleration program. This allowed us to structure our activities and participate in the Innovit project, taking us all the way to San Francisco to collaborate with American partners. Thanks to these experiences, we were able to scale the market and build the company for the future.".
"The concrete advantage of a partnership or collaboration is to find new customers or explore new markets, and this is the difficulty of any start-up. Having a partner like Innovation Center, could be extremely useful, because it allows us to make that leap that alone is very dangerous.".
"Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center opened doors for us, brought us confidence and helped us to achieve our goals. Having a partner from both a banking and equity point of view, such as Intesa Sanpaolo, is a great added value in a competitive market like ours, where there are big players".
“Intesa Sanpaolo helps us by giving great visibility to our work, introducing us to their clients. It is a huge boost for our business development and also for the impact we can have on companies and factories in various territories.”
“Intesa Sanpaolo has helped us a lot to gain market authority, it has made sure that we know what we do, that we work well. And this has been of great help to us..”
“Having Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center as a partner has many advantages: knowledge of the startup market and the possibility of generating business opportunities, for example at SMAU London 2024 we closed important deals thanks to its support.”
“ In Intesa we were able to meet people of great importance and of great depth who made us the challenge, but also enriched in a direct way and at the level of experience, ability to propose and formulation of content"
“Up2stars has been a truly important experience to understand our weak points of the and understand how to effectively exploit the strong ones to enter the market which has marked a sort of turning point”
"With Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center, we started a path that was fundamental for our company. We have managed to develop the necessary tools to create a business plan consistent with a development plan that is leading us to great success"
"Intesa Sanpaolo certainly gave us a lot of visibility. On the one hand, it put us in touch with other startups in the sector, from which friendships and collaborations were born. On the other hand, with people interested in our reality as potential investors".
"The collaboration with Intesa Sanpaolo Innovation Center is fundamental for us because it puts us in contact with important players, such as the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, of which we have recently become partners thanks to them. And also to work on Open Innovation models".
