The Financial Times' Europe's Leading Start-Up Hubs 2026 ranking, produced with Statista and Sifted, assessed 180 hubs across 25 European countries.
After taking #1 in Italy in 2024, we're once again in the national top 3, and 31st in Europe overall. The ranking looks at what truly helps startups grow: spaces and infrastructure, training, mentoring, network, fundraising support, and feedback from alumni, investors, and founders.
For us, this result is a sign that the work we do every day within Italy's and Europe's startup scene is making an impact and it gives us even more energy to keep supporting entrepreneurs, students, and companies through acceleration, education, and open innovation programs.
