Last week the Italian Space Economy cohort brought incredible energy and innovation to San Francisco. At Innovit - Italian Innovation and Culture Hub, participating startups and scaleups were warmly welcomed by Consul General Sergio Strozzi, kicking off an intensive program designed to connect Italian space technology entrepreneurs with Silicon Valley's dynamic ecosystem.

The highlight of the week was the Demo Day, where our innovative companies showcased their groundbreaking solutions in the Space Economy sector, demonstrating Italy's growing prominence in this strategic field.

The program concluded with a special gathering at the Consulate General of Italy in San Francisco, where participants, accompanied by the Director of the Innovation Center Alberto Acito and his team, were welcomed by CG Strozzi, Consul Davide Corriero and Economic and Commercial Attaché Vitalba Gammicchia, and shared their experiences and insights from the program. The discussion focused on future opportunities and potential collaborations, reinforcing INNOVIT's mission to facilitate integration between Italian and US tech and space ecosystems.

We are proud to support these ambitious Italian entrepreneurs as they explore new frontiers in the global space economy. Their success represents another step forward in strengthening the bridge between Italy's innovative spirit and Silicon Valley's resources and visionary approach.
