On the 20th June 2025, Lecce will host the Crowdfunding Summit, Italy’s leading event on equity crowdfunding and alternative finance. Organized by Over Ventures and The Qube, the summit brings together investors, founders, platforms, and innovation leaders to explore the evolving early-stage funding landscape in Southern Europe.
This year, the summit takes place within Sud Up – Innovations from the South, organized by the Apulia Region and ARTI – Regional Agency for Technology, Technology Transfer and Innovation, in collaboration with Puglia Culture. Sud Up is also part of the official calendar of the National Made in Italy Day, promoted by the Ministry for Business and Made in Italy.
This edition will be even more international.
🌐 Thanks to the Salento stop of The Grand Tour by ITS ITALY, organized in partnership with NOMAG, the event will welcome foreign investors and digital nomads who are exploring Italy’s most promising innovation ecosystems. Their presence highlights Lecce’s growing appeal not just as a cultural gem, but as a hub for entrepreneurship and alternative capital.
From market insights and exclusive research to strategic networking sessions, the Crowdfunding Summit 2025 offers a unique opportunity to connect with the key players shaping the future of finance—right in the heart of Puglia.
👉 Whether you're a founder, an investor, or just curious about what's next for alternative finance in the Mediterranean, Lecce is the place to be.
