Building the bridge to Italy's startups.
The fastest-growing companies in Italy, and the young people who want to grow with them, finally in the same place.
Great startups shouldn't be a secret.
Italian startups are growing fast, but many of them have little visibility. Meanwhile, talented students struggle to find them beyond LinkedIn. Great matches never happen simply because the two sides never meet.
From business schools to public universities, Vela is the bridge. The goal is to become the hub of opportunities in an ecosystem that is growing strongly in Italy, one listing at a time.
One bridge, three jobs.

Every listing is reviewed manually before it goes live.
Vela exists to put Italy's startup scene in the spotlight.
Italy is full of talent and ambitious young companies, but too often they never find each other.
Vela's goal is to contribute to the growth of the Italian startup landscape: help students and recent graduates discover growing startups, and give those startups a direct line to motivated people ready to join them.

I follow the Italian startup scene closely and I believe it deserves more visibility. I built Vela to help great young people and growing startups find each other.
