On March 10, 2025, the webinar “RAISE up 2: Mentorship & Community in a Shared Journey” took place, marking the launch of the second edition of the RAISE up Mentorship Program.
Promoted by Spoke 5 of RAISE Liguria, with the support of PwC Italy and I3P – Incubator of the Politecnico di Torino, the event provided an opportunity to meet the selected teams and learn about the initiatives in the program, emphasizing the value of being part of the RAISE up community.
The event began with an overview of the strategic objectives of the RAISE project and the main activities of the first edition of the mentorship program. It was a chance to revisit key moments of the first edition and understand the impact the program had on the startups and SMEs involved.
In particular, Lorenzo Landolfi and Andrea Senacheribbe, members of the InSEGNO team, shared their experience from the first edition of RAISEup, offering valuable advice and useful insights to participants of the second edition.
The importance of the RAISE up community was also emphasized, as it offers participants numerous advantages, including access to advanced technologies, networking, specialized skills, and opportunities for collaboration with external partners. The Company Innovation Survey was also introduced, a tool designed to assess the innovation maturity of SMEs and facilitate the collection of best practices.
The inaugural webinar then featured the presentation of the 13 teams selected for the second edition of RAISE up, who will have the opportunity to participate in strategic events designed to support them at different stages of their development.
The event calendar represents opportunities for growth and interaction with experts and community members, fostering learning and skill development.
