Our report, developed in collaboration with EY, explores the Italian FinTech fundraising landscape through a dual lens: Founders and Investors. Based on insights from over 90 FinTech startups and 50 Investors, it sheds light on challenges, opportunities, and mismatches in expectations shaping the future of the ecosystem.
This report provides a nuanced perspective on fundraising in the sector, examined through a dual lens: Founders and Investors. On one side, Founders call for faster decision-making, strategic support, and, particularly in early stages, greater boldness and trust from Investors. On the other, Investors expect an ambitious and scalable vision from day one, underpinned by a clear exit strategy, a sustainable business model, and a solid plan for regulatory compliance. Notably, both groups concur in their characterization of the funding process for Italian Fintechs, consistently describing it as tough, complex and challenging.
