Creative Destruction Lab Milan

Run by Creative Destruction Lab.

Creative Destruction Lab's Milan site takes deeptech, AI and generalist ventures through nine months of hybrid programming, roughly September to June, anchored by five full-day objective-setting Sessions at eight-week intervals. CDL is a non-profit: it charges no participation fee and takes no equity, and states there is no guaranteed investment and that it does not directly fund the ventures it admits, though mentors and funds in its network may invest separately.
