Get it! program selects four start-ups for impact investment

The Get it! program, an empowerment and impact investment readiness initiative, has selected four start-up teams to participate in its value paths. The program is promoted by the Fondazione Social Venture Giordano Dell’Amore, the strategic arm of Fondazione Cariplo, in partnership with Factory Plus.

During its fifth edition, the program received 93 applications between March and June 2026. Approximately 66% of applicants were already established companies, while 34% were not yet incorporated. Geographically, 62% of applicants were from Northern Italy, followed by Southern Italy at 17%, Central Italy at 16%, and international applicants at 5%.

The selected projects will access incubation, acceleration, mentorship, and investment opportunities, including the possibility of attending an Investor Day in 2027. Among the selected projects are Accanto Academy, a platform connecting families with educators, and Club Joy, a digital platform connecting travelers with Italian artisanal experiences.
