Groups that pass the #CPHack first phase can participate in the selection for Bocconi's marketplace, which will bring together aspiring entrepreneurs with potential investors

#CPHack - the Campus Party innovation contests – can open to young people from all over Italy the doors of Bocconi #Startupday, the initiative that puts in contact startuppers and aspiring entrepreneurs with potential investors.

Up to now reserved for Bocconi students and alumni, thanks to the collaboration with Campus Party #Startupday opens up to young people from any university. Groups that pass the first phase of a #CPHack will have time until 8 September to apply for the #Startupday marketplace via the www.startupday.unibocconi.it website. Participants will be selected by 2 October 2017 by a jury that will take into account the experience and skills of the startup team as well as the innovation, feasibility and scalability of the idea.

In the process of approaching the #Startupday of 21 November, 2017, the selected groups will be able to attend a training program that includes: webinars and seminars held by Bocconi professors, venture capital experts, practitioners, entrepreneurs and managers; an online video clip on the business plan by the Speed ​​MI Up incubator; the MOOC on Private Equity and Venture Capital by Bocconi University.

In the words of Stefano Caselli, Bocconi's Dean for International Affairs, a synthesis of the collaboration with Campus Party: "Managing a new business is no longer an abstract concept far from the world of young people. Technological innovation, the unlimited creativity of the new generations and the ongoing public attention make realizing a personal project a possible challenge. Bocconi has always been a major player in the world of entrepreneurship and in the frontier of economic and managerial innovation. Campus Party is an excellent laboratory for experimenting and innovating".
