In the frame of, and in synergy with, increasing cross-border and soft-landing programs, it has the potential to serve as a breakthrough in Sino-Italian startup integration, as well as in the broader framework of international development.

ISIC aims to empower the Sino-Italian ecosystem by developing a matchmaking model between Italian startups and key stakeholders from the Chinese innovative Ecosystem to create scaling-up opportunities for Italian innovative companies in China.

The Startups will be vetted by a Selection Committee not only analyzing their Business Models but also their potential and matching the needs of the Chinese market. Afterward, they will be screened by a Judging Panel composed of key players of the Chinese Startup Ecosystem. During the matchmaking phase, the Panel will select 10 Startups to enter the Chinese Virtualisation phase, in which the ISIC organizers will help the startups to remotely boost their Chinese market and connections.

The Startups which obtained concrete results will not only have the chance to share their achievements to the public but also gain additional resources to foster their development in China.

ISIC2017 focuses on sectors that are at the intersection of Italian excellencies and Chinese strategic demands, such as:

FoodTech & AgriTech; FashionTech & Design; Life science & HealthTech; GreenTech & New Energies; Smart Manufacturing & Robotics; Smart Cities/Buildings & Home; IoT and New Materials; AI & Machine Learning.
