Fondazione Cottino promotes and wants to convey passion for entrepreneurship culture and the development of entrepreneurial spirit by supporting aspiring young talents in their growth through an acceleration path designed to support high potential business ideas. It provides physical spaces where you can work, but also the assignment of a mentor and an active comparison with companies that could potentially become partners.
WIPARK and ECLEPTI are the two start-ups selected in 2018 that at the end of the acceleration process will work with a financial team to create a business plan to submit to future investors.
The initiative is carried out in collaboration with the IULM Innovation Lab, the new business accelerator of the IULM University of Milan whose main objective is to increase the specific skills of future entrepreneurs so that they develop solid foundations to create tomorrow’s start-ups.
