A network that changes shape
An open system.
Living relationships.
There is no single formula and no fixed sequence. Each initiative creates a different configuration, combining clear responsibilities with complementary capabilities.
01
Mandate, community and perspective
Gives the challenge depth.
Fondazione Carisbo links its institutional mission to the needs and opportunities of the local area. Within the network, it helps identify the challenges that deserve attention and place them in an impact perspective.
- In the system
- it connects initiatives to local priorities, communities, schools and non-profit organisations.
- What it enables
- a recognised mandate, access to the local area, institutional relationships and a focus on results.
02
Support that widens the field
Expands what becomes possible.
Intesa Sanpaolo supports selected initiatives when it sees alignment between themes, beneficiaries and expected impact. It does not shape the operational design: it strengthens the conditions that allow a project to reach its potential.
- In the system
- it acts as a supporter and sponsor of specific programmes, in a role distinct from orchestration and delivery.
- What it enables
- resources, visibility, institutional backing and, where applicable, seats on juries or panels.
03
Orchestration, connection and continuity
Holds things together without locking them down.
TechGarage is the orchestrating node. It connects innovation demand and supply and creates the conditions for organisations, skills and communities to collaborate without losing their identity.
- In the system
- it turns different needs into common ground for dialogue, design and experimentation.
- What it enables
- a shared language, clear relationships and continuity between players, activities and results.
04
Building and operational capacity
Shapes what does not yet exist.
12Venture is an independent operating partner. It brings to the network the ability to turn ideas and intentions into activities, tools and prototypes that make visible what was once only possible.
- In the system
- it leads delivery, workshops, mentoring, prototyping and venture building.
- What it enables
- execution capacity, learning by doing and entrepreneurial skills.
05
Specialisation and human capital
Adds a necessary perspective.
Enzima12 is a specialist node in the network. It contributes when people, human capital, work or communication become decisive for better understanding a challenge and building stronger responses.
- In the system
- it covers specific areas, depending on the needs and configuration of each initiative.
- What it enables
- deeper insight into beneficiaries and skills that complement orchestration and delivery.
06
Space, community and reality
Brings the system into the community.
BIGBO is an independent project and a local test bed. It offers the network a physical and social context in which some TechGarage programmes can meet real people, communities and conditions.
- In the system
- it acts as a setting for meeting, observation and situated experimentation.
- What it enables
- spaces, access to the ecosystem and a concrete threshold between project and reality.
