The Liquid Factory 2026 Roadshow - San Francisco
We are delighted to invite you to the first investor roadshow featuring startups selected by The Liquid Factory — a Startup Factory in Valtellina attracting the best young talent in the world to build the next Silicon Valley unicorn, founded by Fabrizio Capobianco (serial entrepreneur, founder of Funambol and TOK.tv, with over 20 years of Silicon Valley experience) in partnership with BPER.
The event will take place on the 21st of September 2026, at 4 pm, at Mind the Bridge, 450 Townsend St, San Francisco.
RSVP by September 15th.
The Liquid Factory operates through a dual company structure that pairs the unspoiled beauty of the Italian Alps with direct access to Silicon Valley's ecosystem. Each year, four rising entrepreneurs are selected — out of 758 candidates in the last batch alone — for an "Entrepreneurship in Residence" program in Valtellina, Lombardy, where they bring their startup ideas to life in this truly unique setting.
Fabrizio Capobianco will deliver a short introductory presentation on how this new center of technological excellence nurtures young entrepreneurs, providing them with access to the best investors and accelerators in Silicon Valley, while operating in an inspiring location outside traditional urban hubs. He'll then hand off to five startup pitches — two from the first batch, three from the second.
At the end of the event, there will be a networking aperitivo.
