On February 26th, the Founder Institute graduated the first batch of nine nine startups in Rome: YouCare, WeTipp, Gastromama, Avalizer, Kidoco, RingPay, iQuestio, Rollnext and Musing. In April, the founders will meet with Italian investors.
These months have been very challenging, but it was definitely worth it; today we have ten new motivated entrepreneurs, who have worked hard to set up their own business:
- Andrea Gentili with YouCare, which helps in keeping fit and healthy at an affordable price thanks to coupon for doctor, visits and analysis;
- Damiano Ramazzotti with WeTipp, which helps people find interesting and useful things to do and helps associations involve and engage people on the base of their passions;
- Daniele Di Gregorio with Gastromama, which helps special tourists experience the authentic cuisine of the place by putting them in contact with families willing to host them;
- Enzo Augieri and Patrizia Polito with Avalizer, which helps people manage their own files and have them available on more devices with a simplicity never seen before;
- Katerina Cigulevska with Kidoco, which helps parents manage and share daily tasks like bringing their children to the many activities that they normally do during the week;
- Michele Silletti with RingPay, which aims at becoming a new network of e-money based on an app for smartphones;
- Riccardo D'Errico with iQuestio, which helps companies collect data from consumers through very simple and immediate questionnaires delivered via smartphone;
- Salvatore Romeo with Rollnext, which helps retailers create shopping networks and encourages purchases within the network through a mutual exchange of coupons;
- Valerio Massaroni with Musing, which helps clubs find musicians to host and helps musicians promote themselves through live events.
The Mentors who have worked to help and advise the founder deserve a huge thanks. They will surely be proud to have helped these nine startups in the early stages of starting up.
