20V is a hybrid venture platform focused on Italian pre-seed and early-stage companies. We combine equity participation with operational execution, working alongside founders from validated idea to market traction.
We didn't start as a traditional fund. We started by putting our own capital at risk, building ventures alongside founders, and refining our methodology through real-world execution.
Deployment of proprietary capital to test the hybrid venture building thesis. Direct investment alongside early-stage founders. Initial development of the nine-pillar assessment framework through hands-on experience.
First exit (Mnemonica). Operational playbooks refined across business model design, go-to-market execution, and fundraising support. Confirmation that minority equity combined with operational co-building can generate disciplined returns.
Expansion of the team and the operational infrastructure to support a regulated investment vehicle dedicated to institutional investors. The transition is structured and deliberate, designed to preserve the conviction-driven approach that has shaped our first five years.
20V is currently expanding its leadership team to support the next phase of institutional growth.
We are selectively hiring across operating, financial, and legal functions, with a focus on senior professionals who combine institutional experience with hands-on operating capability.
We welcome confidential conversations with candidates interested in shaping a regulated investment platform from its foundation, and with executive search firms operating in the financial services and venture capital space.

Founded in 2020 as a family holding, 20V has evolved into an integrated VC and venture building platform. Working with 20V from day one means embedding strategic leadership, a dedicated operating team, and access to our network into the foundations of the company.
The skills that identify high-potential investments are the same skills that drive business transformation. Operating across both domains lets us bring consistent value to founders, management teams, and counterparties.
The principles that guide our investment decisions also shape how we deliver advisory services. These values define our identity across both business lines and represent our commitment to every partner we work with.
We operate on the principle of shared outcomes. Investment relationships and advisory engagements alike are structured so that our success depends on yours.
Knowledge without application creates no value. Our team brings operational depth directly into the work — supporting ventures and established businesses in delivering measurable results.
Accountability and principled decision-making are non-negotiable. They are the foundation of our relationships with founders, clients, counterparties, and each other.
20V Advisory operates as an operational extension of management teams, designing and executing business transformations across three client segments.
Startups Business model design and scalability architecture
SMEs Growth strategy and organizational evolution
Enterprises Digital transformation and competitive repositioning
