We support founders who are designing a different future through technology

P101 is a multi-stage venture capital firm partnering with exceptional founders who are redefining industries and shaping the future of innovation. Based in Milan, we back technology-driven companies from seed to early growth, supporting them with capital, expertise, and access to our extensive European network.

At the seed stage, we invest through our dedicated team at Prana Ventures, a specialized platform focused on identifying and empowering promising founders from the very beginning of their journey. As companies evolve, P101 continues to accompany them through subsequent stages, providing the strategic guidance and resources needed to scale into market leaders.

Since our founding, we have managed multiple funds and supported dozens of high-growth startups across Europe, helping to build a new generation of digital champions. Our mission is simple: to partner early, support consistently, and help bold ideas grow sustainably.

Programma 101 was the name of the world’s first personal computer produced on a large scale. Conceived, designed, and built by Olivetti in Italy, it stands as a symbol of Italian creativity and technological excellence — an innovation that shaped the course of digital history far beyond national borders.

At P101, we draw inspiration from that pioneering spirit — supporting the kind of innovation that transforms industries and redefines the future.
