Techstars Transformative World Torino, one of the world’s leading accelerator programmes, will once again select 12 “bold” teams with innovative visions and the drive to tackle entrepreneurial challenges. Set to begin in February 2025 at OGR Tech, the programme offers selected start-ups an investment of $120,000, ongoing support and access to a vast global network of mentors, corporate partners and investors.

Over the past five years , the Techstars Transformative World Torino programme has invested in more than 50 companies globally, spanning sectors such as mobility, environmental sustainability, energy, AI, quantum computing, and EdTech.

Theses companies collectively raised over $100 million post-programme between 2020 and 2024. Three of them have been acquired, while others have grown from small teams into organisations with hundreds of employees. Some of these companies have even gone on to acquire others, showcasing the programme’s ability to identify and nurture projects with the greatest potential for growth and innovation.
