EUVC Corporate Venturing Offsite 2026

A Private Off-Site for Corporate Venture Leaders and Senior Executives

Escape to the timeless beauty of Piemonte's wine country for an intimate retreat designed exclusively for a select group of senior corporate leaders and experienced advisors deeply engaged with corporates.

This is not a conference—no stages, no slides, no pitches. Instead, it's a deliberate pause: thoughtful dialogue, shared reflection, and renewal through movement, nature, and conversation. Set amidst the rolling hills of the renowned Barolo and Barbera regions, the experience blends guided vineyard walks, unhurried meals, and intimate fireside exchanges in a private, residential setting that fosters trust and candor.
