From Valtellina to the Silicon Valley: how global innovation advances thanks to European talent

At a time when entrepreneurs, investors, and innovators struggle to find structured pathways to grow and scale internationally, The Liquid Factory was created — the first startup factory that selects European talent and guides it toward leading U.S. acceleration programs, starting from regions like Valtellina.

The Liquid Factory, inspired by the best practices outlined by Fabrizio Capobianco after his entrepreneurial journey in Silicon Valley, represents a fluid model of innovation — where ideas take shape through an ecosystem built on mentorship, access to capital, and global connections.

More than just a solid, two-way bridge between peripheral regions and key innovation hubs, The Liquid Factory is a European talent lab that transforms local insights into entrepreneurial ventures ready to compete on a global scale.
