Italian Tech Alliance
Milan, Italy · Support OrganizationThe Italian Tech Alliance (formerly Italia Startup) is Italy's leading industry association representing the venture capital, startup, and innovation ecosystem. Founded to give the Italian tech community a unified voice, the Alliance brings together venture capital funds, angel investors, startups, scale-ups, and corporate members to advocate for better policy conditions for innovation in Italy. Key focus areas include reforming Italy's 'innovative startup' legal framework, improving tax incentives for VC investment, and attracting international capital to Italian companies. The Alliance publishes research on the state of Italian venture capital, organizes networking events connecting founders with investors, and works with the Italian government on policy initiatives to close the gap between Italy's strong technical talent base and its historically underdeveloped startup financing ecosystem.
