Submit your application to the Acceleration and Pre-Acceleration programs.
Applications are open to anyone (it is not necessary to be a Bocconi student or alumnus/a) anywhere.
Deadline: January 8th, 2025.
B4i's mission is to help startups grow and succeed by investing the experience, knowledge and resources of the wider Bocconi community.
Alumni are a pillar of this community, to which we offer different ways to get involved: one of these is to learn about B4i's startups and possibly meet the entrepreneurs in order to seize any opportunity to grow one’s business and investment portfolio.
There are plenty of experienced and talented angel investors within the Bocconi Alumni community and we would love to link this wealth of experience and investment potential with B4i's accelerated startups.
Most of our startups begin looking for funding as they complete the Acceleration program, and one of our main goals is to constantly improve their chances of finding investors.
This is why we are opening a communication channel to provide selected information to angel investors within the Alumni community, facilitating opportunities with entrepreneurs.
If you are a Bocconi Alumnus interested in scouting and investing in early stage companies on an individual basis, consider becoming an Alumnus Angel
You will have first hand access to a group of carefully selected startups with significant growth potential: only 2% of applications pass our programs’ selections
You will receive informative one-pagers of the startups which are currently fundraising
You will have the opportunity to be personally introduced to startups of your interest
You will be able to fund innovative companies and work along talented entrepreneurs
You will play an active role within the alumni community and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs
Complete this form to receive selected information on B4i’s startup community and to be promptly updated on relevant investment opportunities.
Being a mentor is an engaging way of sharing your skills, supporting innovative startups and expanding your business network. At B4i we are always looking for experienced and willing professionals ready to get involved and contribute to the development of business innovation.
