Startups built from scratch
We select co-founders and build new startups starting from the idea: validation, team, product and go-to-market, with operating resources and capital dedicated from day one.
Junto Ventures · Startup factory & venture builder
We build startups, in series.
Junto Ventures is the entrepreneurial engine of the Junto ecosystem: a venture builder through which we create high-potential tech startups, combining capital, operating teams, selected founders and long-term vision.
The venture builder
New high-potential tech ventures.
Junto Ventures develops new high-potential tech companies. We build startups from scratch together with selected co-founders, and we support teams that are already operating through the stages of growth, traction and fundraising.
We work as a territorial venture builder: we don't just create startups, we generate local economic value by connecting universities, companies, investors and institutions in a single operating ecosystem. Capital, team and long-term vision are the ingredients with which we turn ideas into companies.
