UK/Italy: Gravity Co, the UK-based co-living and PRS brand, has formed a partnership with Italian start-up and scale-up accelerator TechItalia.
TechItalia is decreed as “the UK’s leading community connecting Italians working in tech with the best startups and SMEs in London”. It has 3000 members in its Global Startup Programme (GSUP) – an integrated development path for startups engaged in the expansion of product or service innovations, seeking to strengthen their technical, organisational and financial skills in the UK market.
With London programmes running for up to eight weeks, TechItalia has chosen Gravity Co as its accommodation and experience partner, welcoming entrepreneurs from emerging startup brands, including Masterbiga, Voicemed, Profiter, Qrare, MySpotlyt, PAC and Omnia BPM.
Selecting Gravity’s largest property in West London, programme participants will benefit from their own modern, fully furnished, en-suite studio and can take advantage of the property’s spacious, open-planned co-working/communal lounge.
“With tailored events (both on and off property) and a ready-made community of over 500 Gravity members, programme participants are given the opportunity to network and collaborate with other entrepreneurs, startup contributors and like-minded tech professionals, supporting them in gaining further knowledge and valuable insight into the workings of the UK market,” says Gravity Co.
Riccardo Tessaro, co-founder and CEO of Gravity Co, said: “It’s a pleasure to partner with TechItalia. Gravity Co has always been a destination for tech professionals and aspiring entrepreneurs, so it’s great for us to now have the opportunity to support international partners who are looking to expand their business in the UK.”
Marco Scotti, program manager for TechItalia, added: “It’s been a true pleasure participating with Gravity Co and their entire team. When organising acceleration programmes for Founders who want to establish in London, accommodation is the basis for a pleasant and comfortable experience. As a company, we need to work with organisations like Gravity Co, having sufficient capacity for scalable programmes, hosting our Founders in locations they enjoy, having their needs in mind; complete with a team who can assist them during their stay. We plan to organise more programmes in the future, and we’d love to keep partnering with Gravity Co.”
