First edition of the call for start-ups involved in the circular economy

The Bracco Foundation, in collaboration with Positive Economy Forum San Patrignano, the incubator Speed MI Up and the investment fund Oltre Venture, launches the first edition of the call for start-ups involved in the circular economy with the aim of promoting the transition towards a circular economy in favour of sustainable growth through innovative business ventures, encouraging entrepreneurship among young people and spreading the positive values of the economy.

The call Start-up Circular Economy rewards three start-ups with a non-repayable grant of € 5,000 each, together with a year of incubation at Speed MI Up, the incubator of Bocconi University and the Chamber of Commerce of Milan.

The call is open to aspiring entrepreneurs who, regardless of where they are based, establish within three months of arriving in Speed MI Up, a limited company operating in any sector of the economy but it must be linked to the theme of circular economy, with its registered and/or operating office in Italy or start-ups already established less than 20 months from the call publication date. Each start-up team must have an average age below 39.

The call Start-up Circular Economy is part of "progettoDiventerò" a multi-year initiative of the Bracco Foundation designed to accompany young talent in their training and professional careers, promoting innovative ways of reinforcing the links between the world of work and study.
