BCC Innovation Festival

September 29, 2026

After the NEOLAiA SUMMA Academy participation as a sponsor, the BCC – Banca Campania Centro Iccrea Group – decided to launch its Innovation Festival in partnership with the University of Salerno.

The BCC Innovation Festival is a great occasion to present new business ideas to potential investors. Why not build on the ideas and projects developed during our SUMMA Academy?

Individuals, informal teams, newly established companies and startups interested in developing or presenting a business idea are welcome to participate.

The information roadshow will take place:

On Monday, October 5, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, the BCC Innovation Festival—promoted by the BCC Iccrea Group—will take place in the “C. Pecoraro” Hall at the Fisciano campus, University of Salerno.

An online meeting connection will be organized for those who registered here

The BCC Innovation Festival is a program dedicated to identifying, fostering, and supporting innovative entrepreneurial ideas originating within local communities, with a particular focus on startups, SMEs, and sustainability-oriented projects.

Through the Group’s BCC banks, the most promising ventures can access a growth pathway that includes training, mentorship, incubation, and acceleration, ultimately offering the chance to connect with international investors and partners.

The regional roadshows organized by Banca Campania Centro—in collaboration with the University of Salerno—will take place on October 5 in Fisciano; the event will provide an overview of the new edition’s features, participation procedures, and the support and guidance pathways offered by the Festival.

Discussions will also explore the value of the local ecosystem and the collaboration between universities, businesses, institutions, young people, and the cooperative banking system as a driver for transforming ideas and skills into tangible growth opportunities for communities. Finally, a presentation by a startup that previously won the Festival will offer a concrete example of the journey and opportunities provided by the initiative.

The event will conclude with a session for discussion and networking, aimed at fostering new connections and strengthening the innovation ecosystem in the Campania region.

All people, informal teams, and newcos who would like to present a Business Idea are welcome to join the event in person or remotely by following this link for pre-registration.
